Anniversary: 125 oldies celebrated 125 years of ACS
BIG SHOW For the 125th anniversary of the Automobile Club of Switzerland, 125 vehicles from different eras of automotive history and from four national regions came together at the Swiss Museum of Transport in Lucerne.
With this meeting, people in Lucerne have the unique opportunity to get a comprehensive picture of this much-loved cultural asset on wheels. In groups of 25 to 30 vehicles, the four-wheeled contemporary witnesses drove in a rally to Lucerne to the Museum of Transport, the center of mobility history. The crowning glory was a trip over the Brünig and Susten passes on to Andermatt.
Living automotive history
The ACS, which has been representing the interests of motorists and living the automotive passion for 125 years, has organized this get-together of young and classic cars for its big birthday. That 125 vehicles with the vintages 1938 to 2003 meet in one place is unique.
With a 2003 vintage, a Maserati Spyder was the youngest vehicle in the Corso. A real veteran, with vintage 1938 the oldest vehicle, was a BMW 328. All 125 vehicles are witnesses of automotive contemporary history - also there to evoke childhood memories in many participants.
There is a future with synfuels
The owners of these precious automobiles are very concerned that they should be able to continue to drive their vehicles in the future and still be considerate of the environment. That's why some of them already run on synthetic fuel that emits virtually no CO2-neutral. Synfuel is the fuel that will allow classic cars to be driven on our roads without any problems in the future. Interesting details on this topic could be learned at the booth of Horag Future Energy, a pioneer in this field, which offers the synthetic fuel P1.
