Thanks for those pictures. All those shown 600 are identified, but you missed one black unknown) Pullman with sharpred leather. It might be a 6door version , offered by Rosier Classic Center. When you have the Vin of the 6.3's I would like to get them for our registery. Has nobody info's about that 1968 Pullman ???

Some M-100 pictures taken at Techno Classica 2015:

Sorry not to have bumped into more of you this year, but the breathtaking scale of the event and seemingly never-ending collections of fabulous automobiles and restoration, parts and conservation shops certainly kept me on my feet, and I still didn't come close to seeing everything.
Definitely setting up plans to return next year, which will be April 6-10 2016.

Hi Martin,
I did not receive your sms; perhaps I should have written my phone number with clear numbers but I decided to hide some numbers in order not to be caught by some malware programs that lurk around.
Anyway we had a big group and all the guys were eager to hit some local pubs etc. so we were quite busy during all the trip.
The show was excellent, as usual. I talked with the local M-100 Club guys at TC.
Also we hade a lunch at the Classic Remise and walked through the showroom. One brochure handed out at TC told the W100 at Classic remise used to belong to former USSR President Brezhnev!

Okay Martin,
we have a group of six guys and I have to ask them when we all team up tomorrow. We will land in DUS at 14.50. Propably we will go for late lunch after check-in to hotel. If you are at TC tomorrow you will probably be available after that only, I guess we have had our lunch by that time...
you could send me an sms and I can reply with the info when we are available + 358 4O 737 |2 4O

Hello!
For us it would be nice to have a get together near the Ibis, at least on Thursday as we will not be going to the exhibition that day (tomorrow already). Fri-Sat can be something else after the exhibition closing time.
Any suggestions for Thursday, I mean a nice place nearby for a beer os so?

I'll be there Thursday, probably arriving tea-time if I can wake up/set off in time to get to Folkestone before the M25 falls apart. Thursday at the Arosa (others already fully booked), then the Ibis Fri and Sat. Looking forward.

Hi there! Last week the 72 euro rooms were available, I should have booked then but I had a poor internet connnection at my hotel in Thailand... plus our group was not complete that time.
Anyhow today Booking.com showed zero availability for 16 - 19 April but I managed to book via hotel website, at 101 euro rate per double room.
There will be 6 MBC Finland members staying over at Ibis then. I look forward to meet some of you there.

I´ve booked the 16/17, just a suggestion maybe when everyone has made there arrangements we could plan to meet at a local brewery for food and lubrication! I found this a stones throw from the Classica……
Lubrication: Viscosity in this case….. Everyone makes there own decision #61514; http://www.ruettenscheider-hausbrauerei.de/unsere-biersorten/

Hi Albert,
Should we make this IBIS the M100 headquarters for the 2015 Techno Classica?
Ibis Essen Hauptbahnhof Hollestrasse 50 45127 ESSEN GERMANY
I checked the prices for the hotel and it works out to an average of 74euro/night. I have made a reservation (free cancellation up until the day of arrival) in on the 14/04/15 out 18/04/15. April 15 is a 'Happy View Day' (their words not mine [:D]). Ant and I went on this day a couple of years ago and it was worth the extra cost, 40euro versus 22euro for the other days. Far smaller crowds and a more relaxed atmosphere.

I have set my mind on going next year, if work permits.
Might even take #335 With me and have the MFI serviced at the same time ;-) What's my best option for MFI service in Germany?
