Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again.

© 2006 WMG
Never Let Me Down Again (Remastered Video)

A bit of BMW Isetta fame!
I came across this 1987 Depeche Mode video featuring a `56-`62 BMW Isetta 300.  You can see the car being used from 1:01-3:00.  Beautiful scenery and footage of the features of the Isetta.

BMW Love Story


BMW Love Story, a film made about BMW passion from 1978 - 3 parts, which will all play.  The main character is tired of his ordinary car and discovers his answer to a real car lies in Munich.  He discovers all sorts of interesting scenery, BMWs and challenges along the way.  In addition to falling in love with his newly acquired E21 323i, he finds love elsewhere thanks to driving The Ultimate Driving Machine.  He later spreads his word to his mates back home in the US.  Amazing scenery, driving and an array of BMWs from the 30s to 1978 are featured.  I highly recommend, though lengthy.

This guy and his wife were out for a Sunday drive in their 1938 BMW 328 and saw our event sign at the park entrance. Birds of a feather: Glas 1600 Roadster next to its descendent, a BMW 1600 GT. Nobody came back from a Farmobil ride without a smile on their face! A classic CVC photo from way back. Beautiful CS Coupe that joined us from Old Lyme. Wonderful friendships are made at the Humpa. A scene from Humpa 2011. CVC Member Steve Sicklick, Best In Show at Show n Shine 2011 – 1988 M3! CVC Member jerri Wiley got 1st place with this pic at Ofest 09! A scene from drivers school. A club member enjoying a day at Lime Rock Park. Teens learn the ropes in our Street Survival course. Quite a few members find our Karting sessions rather invigorating. Numbers! We like numbers. Join Us!
