Sports cars for millionaires, sports cars for the millions—a multi-faceted spectrum unfolds here on 440 fascinatingpages: an exciting range encompassing everything fromthe MGB, the “quota-king” with 513,272 cars sold, to theJaguar XK SS, of which just 16 were sold worldwide.Hartmut Lehbrink describes a “rolling social pyramid” inhis text. The specifications of the cars’ bodies, motors,and overall looks vary accordingly: some modest, some exuding power, some understated, some opulent. The spirit of the British sports car tradition is reflected in theaesthetics of Schlegelmilch’s photography and in Lehbrink’s knowledgeable text. Both have a feel for thecharacter and charisma of the vehicles, the passion anddedication of thosewho developed them, as well as the success story of the makes and models—information presented from its most appealing side.
Editor and Photographer: There is a persistent rumor that Rainer Schlegelmilch’sbirth was initiated on the back seat of a Mercedes Benz170V. Whether or not this is the source of his ongoing affinity to anything that has four wheels, his fascination withcars is vividly expressed in his photographs.
Author: How do you get from German and English philology toautomotive journalism? Chalk it up to car racing: the appearance of the Silver Arrows (Silberpfeile) in Spa,Zandvoort and at the Nürburgring, says the Germanist andAnglicist Hartmut Lehbrink. Numerous books on auto-mobiles and racing penned by Lehbrink testify to the long-term impact of these early experiences.
