The Opel Adam in Geneva

March 28, 2014 by: Virtual Motorpix | 1 Comment

The lower level of the hotel was dark, the lighting dim. Parked in the corner, camouflaged with mottled army style paint, was a car, barely visible. We hurried past as though on a mission, towards a door...where a young lady welcomed us with a drink, and beckoned us to come inside. Once inside the room, we were greeted warmly by Vauxhall's PR team, some of whom had … [Read more...]

REFLECTIONS ON THE GENEVA MOTOR SHOW 2014

March 21, 2014 by: Virtual Motorpix | Leave a Comment

In general, the Geneva Motor Show is regarded by most media regulars as the best one to attend, as it is in the words of one journalist, 'small but perfectly formed'. The night before the first press day, Monday 3 March, is usually reserved for a number of different manufacturer events, where journalists can view new models prior to the media unveiling the next day. This … [Read more...]

In order to keep up-to-date, Pim attended the press days 6 and 7 March at the Geneva Motor Show, the press and VIP day of 21 March at the TechnoClassica Essen, the biggest classic car event with 2,500 cars on display, most of them for sale, and the … [Read more...]

Pim van der Veer, one of our photographers, looks at how the dynamics of international motor shows have changed over the last thirty years. The Frankfurt Motor Show – or as it is properly called, the IAA Internationale Automobil Ausstellung – is the biggest motor show held in Europe every other year (uneven years), the Paris Motor Show being held alternately in the even … [Read more...]

Crossing the river

March 11, 2011 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

Mercedes Benz Museum, Stuttgart

In late February the VMP team undertook a journey of epic proportions, in which we crossed six countries, covering 2103 miles in 10 days. That may not sound like a whole lot of miles, but every day was packed with research, photography and related work making it quite a feat.   Starting in Wales, we made it to Dover and crossed the river without incident but arriving on … [Read more...]

Geneva Motor Show 2011

I have now done several Geneva shows and they just seem to get better and better. Or at least the cars do, but the presence of non-journalistic visitors including children on press days is still a huge nuisance. These two days are for just that, the press, who have to cover the show for the respective media outlets, editors, publishers or bosses, and when kids run in front of … [Read more...]
