The VW Microbus This was about as close to honest advertising as it got, from memory. (I’ve just been watching Crazy People: ‘Buy Volvos. They’re boxy, but they’re good.’)

1977 Opel Rekord Coupe (by Hugo90)

Home on the Ranger I know at the time we were all looking at the Rekord E and what a leap ahead that was, but 30-plus years on, I have to say the D Coupé looks fab.

1970 Volkswagen Karmann Cheetah Concept Car (01) (by GS1311)

Karmann Cheetah I didn’t see this one last time I was at the Zeithaus. Really loving how ’70s this looks.

R8 History

Inside Audi Love this ad, but maybe my sense of scale is ruining it a bit. I would imagine that the Audi Sport Quattro and the NSU Prinz should be in there, as well as the Auto Union racer from before the war. At this screen size, I wonder if the ones in the middle are meant to represent these models.

1972 Munich Olympics: Official Results 1

München 1972 Quite an interesting design. The pictograms have a sense of aggression about them, in my view, feeling more angular. They evolved to be somewhat warmer in later years. Univers works well but the absence of a weight change makes the cover look less contemporary to me. Meanwhile, linguistically, it’s interesting the order is French–English–German, which perhaps showed that French was still an international language at this point. Go around the UN, it still is, but it’s certainly nowhere nearly as widely taught today as it was in the 1970s.
