  • Classic Cars: a New Alternative Investment Vehicle?
    MSc. Thesis Classic Cars: A New Alternative Investment Vehicle? Date: 21-09-2017 Student: Dries Laurs ANR: 747398 Supervisor: prof. dr. Luc Renneboog Second reader: dr. C.A.R. Schneider Abstract This thesis investigates the price determinants and investment performance of classic cars. We investigate a sample of over 29,000 classic car auction sales conducted between January 1998 and July 2017. A hedonic regression methodology is used in order to construct several constant-quality classic car price indices. Based on these indices, we estimate that classic cars appreciated in value by around 3.37 % and 5.63 % annually, respectively in real and in nominal terms. Compared to other asset classes, return performance has been strong. Over the period covered, only gold outperformed classic cars. When we incorporate dividend yields into equity returns, we find that equities as an asset class slightly outperform classic cars. On a risk-adjusted basis, the performance is similar, with both asset classes showing Sharpe ratios of around 0.30. Comparing the risk-adjusted performance of classic cars to other asset classes, we find that gold and government bonds outperformed classic cars, as measured by their larger Sharpe ratios. We find that classic car investments partially hedge against inflation. Accounting for non-synchroneity in the returns between classic cars and equity markets, we find a much stronger relationship between the two than initially expected. This shows that wealth effects are important drivers of classic car returns. While this limits the diversification potential of classic cars, the systematic risk of classic car investments remains low. Contents 1.

  • Sports Car 1 Sports Car
    Sports car 1 Sports car A sports car (sportscar or sport car) is a small, usually two seat, two door automobile designed for spirited performance and nimble handling. Sports cars may be spartan or luxurious but high maneuverability and minimum weight are requisite. Mazda MX-5, the world's best selling sports car Early History The basis for the sports car is traced to the early 20th century touring cars and roadsters. These raced in early rallys, such as the Herkomer Cup, Prinz Heinrich Fahrt, and Monte Carlo. Though the term sports car would not be coined until after World War One, the first sports cars are considered to be the 3 litre 1910 Prince Henry (Prinz Heinrich) Vauxhall 20 hp (tax rating) and the 27/80PS Austro-Daimler designed by Ferdinand Porsche. These would shortly be joined by the French DFP (which became Prince Henry Vauxhall—3-litres sporters after tuning by H.M. and W. O. Bentley) and the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. In the U.S., where the type was variously called roadster, speedster, runabout, or raceabout, there was Apperson, Kissel, Marion, Midland, National, Overland, Stoddard-Dayton, and Thomas among small models, while Chadwick, Mercer, Stutz, and Simplex were among large models. In 1921, Ballot premiered its 2LS, with a remarkable 75 hp (56 kW) DOHC two liter, designed by Ernest Henry (formerly of Peugeot's Grand Prix program), capable of 150 km/h (90 mph); at most, one hundred were built in four years. This was followed by the SOHC 2LT Prince Henry Austro-Daimler—5.7-litres and 2LTS.

  • Peugeot Location
    Peugeot location The family business that preceded the current Peugeot companies was founded in in France , [5] with a steel foundry that soon started making hand tools and kitchen equipment, and then bicycles. The Peugeot company and family are originally from Sochaux , France. Peugeot retains a large manufacturing plant and Peugeot museum there. Peugeot has received many international awards for its vehicles, including six European Car of the Year awards. In and , Peugeot ranked the second lowest for average CO 2 emissions among generalist brands in Europe, the Renault car maker group being ranked first, with Peugeot has been involved successfully in motor sport for more than a century. Peugeot Sport won the World Rally Championship five times , , , , , the Dakar Rally seven times , , , , , , , the 24 Hours of Le Mans three times , , , the World Endurance Championship twice , , the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup twice , surpassing Toyota and Audi and the Intercontinental Rally Challenge Championship three times. The company's logo, initially a lion walking on an arrow, symbolized the speed, strength and flexibility of the Peugeot saw blades. Armand Peugeot became interested in the automobile early on and, after meeting with Gottlieb Daimler and others, was convinced of its viability. The car was more sophisticated than many of its contemporaries, with a three-point suspension and a sliding-gear transmission. More cars followed, 29 being built in , 40 in , 72 in , in , and in Peugeot became the first manufacturer to fit rubber tyres solid, rather than pneumatic to a petrol-powered car. Five Peugeots qualified for the main event, and all finished.

Anders Eriksson Sponsoring agency Swedish Ministry of Defence Scientifically and technically responsible Report title The development of the French defence industry in the 20th century Abstract (not more than 200 words) The French defence industry is the world’s third largest national defence industry. It has an interesting history and reflects the development of the French military posture. This report presents an overview of the development of the French defence industry, an overview that starts in the 14th century but has its focus on the 20th century. The overview ends at the beginning of the 21st century. The development of the French defence industry shows an interplay between technology; the demands of war; the interests, powers and limitations of the state; and the power struggles between different actors within the French “military-industrialised complex”. The French state has shown (and still shows) considerable interest in the defence industry. It has not hesitated to use its powers or to intervene in the industry by means of nationalisations, industrial mobilisations and state-orchestrated consolidations.

  • A PSA Peugeot-Citroen/Rootes Group Family Tree
    A PSA Peugeot-Citroen/Rootes Group Family Tree This family tree has been greatly simplified. For example, Simca at one time controlled Unic, but later sold the company to Iveco, so I haven't mentioned it here. Similarly, Chrysler has not been covered here in detail since it was only involved for 15 years. There are probably also omissions. If any readers can help fill in omissions, please let me know. Some texts report that Citroen took over Hotchkiss (incorporating Delage, Delahaye and Amilcar) in the 1970s, yet other texts have conflicting accounts. Due to this uncertainty I have not included details here.
