When it comes to vintage and classic cars, winter months are usually time for a break while the delicate classics are catching a few z’s in the garage, well-protected from ice, snow and above all, road salt. But do temperatures of eight below and deep snow really make all this necessary? For Uli, the owner of the 1967 BMW 1600-2, and the two photographers Michael and Thomas – I wouldn’t bet on it.
Almost 190 PS from a 2-liter engine, tuned for today, no parts that weren’t available in 1967 – that’s what makes Uli’s car different… and the fact that it is just as resilient in winter and fun in deep snow with its mass-to-power ratio and 165 winter tires.
The result is an extensive editorial photo spread with numerous car-to-car shots, panned shots drifting, and of course, details of all technical and design finesses of the classic rally car. And to whet the appetite for the story properly across social media channels, the duo also produced a teaser film while they were at it. Turn up the volume!
