Most Say That This New Model

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz F125 is an automobile created by Mercedes-Benz in order to mark their 125 years of being one of the top automobile manufacturers in the entire world. Most say that this new model, the F 125, is a car of the future and will surely set the bar for up and coming vehicles of the future. It gives a better meaning to the words large and luxurious when it comes to automobiles. With the Mercedes-Benz F125, the manufactures have envisioned creating it with an emission free engine and is hydrogen powered; with emphasis to the use of hydrogen (H2) as the power source of course. The general plan with this model is that it will be the standard for future cars and will be the one to beat in the coming years. As with most luxury cars in the present, the Mercedes-Benz F 125 boasts astounding features as well as spacious interiors. It is designed with comfort and aesthetics in mind. According to the manufacturers, automobiles of the future have a lot of potential particularly ones with no emission issues. Aside from the emission free engine, the F 125 also features futuristic concepts that are unfortunately not available in the market today.

The concept of open two-seater and easily operated, weatherproof top was so successful that even the 300 SL was modified correspondingly. In the spring of 1957, the legendary Gullwing was replaced by a roadster version that from then on permitted open-top motoring even in this class of high-performance sports cars. With this roadster, Mercedes-Benz offered its customers a car for comfortable and fast traveling - or a luxurious cabriolet. Purists and coupe owners, however, referred to the new model as "living room on wheels". An extra weight of 100 kilograms did not exactly benefit performance but at an unchanged output of 215 hp, the roaster still had plenty of muscle. The tubular grid-type frame was retained as the backbone for the roadster as well, though significantly modified in the areas of the doors and rear end. In this way, the engineers created space for an - albeit small - trunk and for "proper" doors which made getting in and out clearly more convenient. A new rear axle - a single-joint swing axle with balancing spring - was incorporated, improving both handling and ride. In 1961, the turbo-cooled duplex drum brakes were replaced by modern disc brakes.

Its soft-top - operated easily and conveniently - vanished underneath a separate cover behind the seats. The car's external appearance continued to be unmistakably SL, its face being characterized by headlamp and turn signal integrated under a common lens on each side. A swage line extending from the upper edge in the air outlet in the fender far into the door caught the eye when looking at the car from the side. The company complemented the package by an elegant, easy-to-fit hardtop for winter sports fans in the fall of 1958. This hardtop was so much in demand that it soon became the most frequently ordered option. There was a special, high-performance sports version of the roadster that deserves to be mentioned. At the wheel of this car, O’Shea won the Class D of the 1957 US Sports Car Championship in superior fashion, with three times as many points as the runner-up, Caroll Shelby on Maserati. This last significant championship marked the end of the glorious career of the 300 SL in motor sport - five years after the first 300 SL's start. The 1,858th - and last - 300 SL roadster came off the assembly line on February 8, 1963, taking the ingenious design of the tubular grid-type frame and the robust, reliable and powerful direct-injection gasoline engine with it.

I’m not sure which design brief entered the Volkswagen designers’ minds first, but both the open top tourers : the Volkswagen EOS and the Volkswagen Passat CC, are beautiful cars. Quite a lot larger, the Passat CC offers more room and more power. Add up all the style, features and performance, and my conclusion is that you get an awful lot of car for your money. Look out for the Passat CC V6 FSI. This is an AWD model boasting 220 kW of power, and with all paws grabbing at the ground you move exceptionally swiftly. The Passat CC 125 TDI offers the buyer a frugal and punchy diesel option. Perhaps the only drawback is that the CC will only seat four, however the feature list is stacked with goodies, and the quality of the vehicle is outstanding. The ingredients are right, and the looks are striking. Like an athlete poised in the blocks ready for the race, is the Volkswagen Passat CC.
