BMW Century (2nd Edition)

Established in 1916, BMW is one of the automotive and motorcycle industry's oldest and most-respected manufacturers. Over the past 100-plus years, the company has passed through myriad incarnations. The BMW Century chronicles this remarkable transportation story through the cars and motorcycles manufactured, from the 1923 R32 motorcycle to today's sleek electric, hybrid, and high-performance cars.

"The BMW Century" showcases how the company's visionary team systematically rebuilt BMW in the post-World War II years into the spectacular success we know today - a company with sales in excess of two million cars annually, led by its top-selling 3-series.

BMW's motorcycle division is no less legendary. It began with the 1923 avant-garde R32, which featured a 180-degree, horizontally opposed twin, the engine configuration that would become BMW's hallmark.
Over the decades, BMW used that configuration to power groundbreaking machines like the R90 S, R100 RS, and R80 GS. Beginning in 1983, the company added add three- and four-cylinder machines to their offerings, culminating in today's spectacular S1000 RR sport bike.

From the pre-war motorcycles to the iconic R-series twins of the 1970s and '80s to the mighty M-cars and superbikes of today, The BMW Century offers a full review of German engineering at its zenith. The book is illustrated generously with hundreds of historic, contemporary, and racing photographs - many sourced from BMW's historic archives - and thorough text covering BMW's full history.

This is the one volume no BMW aficionado will want to be without.

BMW: Die schönsten Modelle - 100 Jahre Design und Technik

De weg naar de legendarische slogan "BMW - Freude am Fahren" begon meer dan 100 jaar geleden, toen de "Bayerische Flugzeugwerke AG" in 1916 werd opgericht, later omgedoopt tot BMW AG. In de daaropvolgende decennia vond BMW marktniches en ontwikkelde het uitzonderlijke voertuigen die nu als designiconen worden beschouwd, zoals de 507 en de M1.

BMW - Klassiker vom Dixi zur 6er-Reihe (Typenkompass)

BMW did not have an easy time after the Second World War. A destroyed main factory in Munich, where cars had never been manufactured before, high losses in the 1950s and a near takeover by Daimler.
But with the appearance of the BMW mid-range car 1500 in 1962, a sensational turnaround was achieved.

In this book from the Typenkompass series, Halwart Schrader presents the passenger car series up to the mid-1970s, from the first Dixis to the pre-war classics such as the BMW 328 and the first 6 Series Coupé series from 1978. In addition, the special models, such as those from Veritas or the EMW models, are presented in detail and with pictures.

BMW 503, 507, 3200 CS, Z8 - Der Traum vom Fahren

De BMW-modellen 503, 507, 3200 CS en de moderne Z8 werden ontwikkeld als antwoord op de SL-modellen van Mercedes-Benz, maar wisten nooit volledig uit hun schaduw te treden.
Toch betoverden deze auto's met tijdloze elegantie niet alleen beroemdheden zoals Elvis Presley, maar kregen ook lof van Enzo Ferrari. Tegenwoordig behoren ze tot de zeldzaamste en meest waardevolle auto's ooit.

In dit geïllustreerde boek vertelt auteur Eberhard Kittler het verhaal van deze klassiekers aan de hand van unieke foto's en uitgebreide interviews met ontwerpers en ontwikkelaars.

BMWi - Visionary Mobility

Electro-mobility is the number one topic when it comes to our mobility in the future. What does the vision of BMW, Germany's main pioneer in the field, look like? For the first time providing extensive insight into BMW's workshop of ideas, this volume presents the multi-faceted concept for sustainable and visionary mobility right up to autonomous driving.

In the spring of 2008, a think tank of engineers, designers, trend researchers, and financial experts met on a factory floor of BMW's parent plant in Munich to rethink mobility. This volume traces the exciting venture in its complex development, while also looking at the future.
A main focus is on the major challenges of our time - climate change, scarcity of resources, megacities - and the solution approaches: technological innovations, networked mobility, sustainability in production and the use of renewable materials. Autonomous driving plays a particularly important role.
Terrific close-ups and design drawings present all models from the BMW i3 and the BMW i8 to the BMW i Vision Future Interaction.

BMW - Les plus beaux modèles 1959-1999 (Autofocus)

December 9 1959 marks the date of the second birth of the BMW company, born forty years earlier.
Who could have imagined then that this small car manufacturer on the verge of bankruptcy would have six decades later one hundred and thirty thousand employees spread across thirty-one factories under several different brands with Mini and Rolls Royce?
Who could have guessed that the Munich manufacturer would produce more than 2.5 million vehicles in 2018?

Bladzijden uit het boek "BMW - Les plus beaux modèles 1959-1999"

Its history was built on models such as the tiny 700, the BMW 1500/1800, the 2002, the 5 and 7 Series, the exciting M3, the 30 CSI and 6 Series coupes, the Z1 and Z3 convertible and the powerful M1.
Legendary models that you will find throughout the pages of this book and which have built the modern history of this manufacturer whose philosophy is driving pleasure.
