| Cars @ the 2019 Brussels Motor Show Hi Everyone, As luck would have it, I was able to go to the the Brussels Motor Show this year. This is the first automobile show of any kind that I have gone for, so I was very, very excited about it! This is a photologue focusing on the 4 Wheelers. If you want to see the 2 Wheeler, 3 Wheeler & Quad bikes from the show, please go to this thread: https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/motor...-wheelers.html But first, let me explain how I ended up going for this expo. I actually had no idea that it was even happening. A friend of my wife's was telling her that she wanted to go to the expo, but had no one to go with. My wife knew from the year before that I wanted to go to the expo for sure, and suggested to her friend that she should go along with me. The moment she messaged me asking if I wanted to go, I jumped out of my seat in excitement, and couple of minutes later, I had booked the tickets for both of us to go the very next day.  Let me apologize for the picture quality up front, as all the photos were taken with an iPhone. I also apologize for the inconsistency in taking the pictures. When I first entered the expo, I started clicking everything in excitement, but that meant that I spent a lot of time at the initial couple of paddocks, and also wore my phone's battery down very fast. After my phone died, I borrowed my friend's phone to take the remaining pictures, but she was also tired and exhausted, and wanted to leave, so some of the pictures were taken in a hurry, and I had to skip taking pictures of many vehicles due to this as well. In addition, it was very difficult to get a proper picture of some of the vehicles, as people kept crowding around them, leaving me just a couple of precious seconds to take a photo from a bad angle. Now without further ado, I present the pictures I did manage to take. Please enjoy them!  |

| As soon as I walked in through the entrance, this Audi RS5 DTM Racecar caught my attention immediately!   And opposite was this Dakar Dunbee Buggy.   On our way down to the expo, saw this Subaru XV.   After checking out the bikes, this was the first car I saw - the Vaillante Grand Défi.   This Scuderia FMA Ferrari 488 Challenge Racecar had me captivated for 5 minutes!    Into the Dream Cars area, and lo and behold, the mighty Bugatti Chiron!    Then the beautiful and limited edition Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Volante!     The Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster.    And its 4 door cousin, the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S Coupé.    The very mean and muscular Dodge Challenger SRT Demon!  BMW i8 Roadster.  The timeless looking Ferrari 340 America Ghia Coupé   Last edited by Joxster : 28th January 2019 at 04:26. |

| Now that I was out of the Dream Car area, this was the first car to catch my eye, the BMW 440i beating Kia Stinger GT!    Then I saw this Honda NSX. I must say that although the styling of this car is simple, it does look very good!     The slightly overdone and very busy looking Honda Civic Type R.    The very compact Suzuki Swift Sport.    The Subaru BRZ.    The achingly beautiful Peugeot e-Legend Concept!     The unrealistic looking Opel GT X Experimental.    The cool Opel GT.  A car I seriously considered buying. The Toyota GT86.    The Toyota Yaris WRC.   Last edited by Joxster : 28th January 2019 at 04:08. |
