Actions speak louder than words

So no grand promises here, just our pictures. See for yourself.

You can write a great deal about tons of steel. About the noise when the engine fires up. About the moment the tracks first start moving beneath you. In the end none of that convinces anyone – you have to hear it, feel it and see it.

Every shot on this page was taken on our own grounds here in the Sauerland. No advertising photos, no borrowed pictures from the internet, no studio lighting – just our vehicles, our routes and perfectly ordinary driving days. Take a few minutes, look through them at your leisure and decide for yourself whether this is something for you.

Listen in

A photograph tells only half the truth – the sound is missing. Press play and turn it up a little: engine, turbocharger and steel tracks sound exactly like this when you are the one at the controls.

The videos only load when you press play – that keeps the page quick on a phone as well.

The second vehicle

The Kübelwagen

Open, air-cooled and with the unmistakable Beetle engine in the back – the VW 181 is the more relaxed, but no less charming way to drive with us.

And this is what it looks like when you are the one driving: 45 minutes along the small roads of the Sauerland, roof off and in no hurry. Two clips of one minute each – once in sunshine across the hills, once through shady woodland.

Everything on this page was filmed by us. But our guests send us their own photos too – and those are often the better ones. Take a look at our guest gallery.

Your own picture is best taken at the controls

Pictures are one thing. The moment the engine fires up beneath you is quite another.
