  • The Stars of the Eighth Edition of Mercanteinauto Are the Legendary 6-Cylinder Inline Bmws and a Much Sought After EMW 340 with Red Propeller
    Press Release AT MERCANTEINFIERA AN EXHIBITION TELLS (ALSO) THE STORY OF THE OTHER BMW LIFE, THE RED PROPELLER The stars of the eighth edition of Mercanteinauto are the legendary 6-cylinder inline BMWs and a much sought after EMW 340 with red propeller. The first edition of “Parma’s 100 km Rally”, with rural itineraries and a visit to the Dallara Academy, gets underway. The excitement continues at the exhibition with the Ferrari pit-stop, an event organized by the Scuderia Ferrari Club of Monticelli Terme. (Parma, 23 September) What hides behind the sparkling bodywork of a vintage car? Who has driven it and, above all, what is its story? The latter is embodied in the red propeller of the EMW 340, the protagonist of the eighth edition of Mercanteinauto, the event for car enthusiasts featuring at Fiere di Parma during the opening weekend (5-6 October) of Mercanteinfiera, the international exhibition dedicated to antiques, modern antiques and vintage collectibles (5-13 October). At the end of World War II, Germany had to cede control of Thuringia to the Soviet Union, and with it the city of Eisenach, historic headquarters of BMW car production. Awtowelo, the Soviet-controlled East German factory, used the BMW trademark illegally until 1952, when the Bavarian company forced the managers of the Eisenach plant to change it. From that time, their cars were branded as EMW (Eisenacher Motoren Werke). Their symbol was a red propeller. One of the rare models with this trademark will be on display at the exhibition. The car comes from Claudio Baroni’s Old Cars Collection, as do the legendary 6- cylinder inline BMWs on display at the exhibition in Pav.

  • Mercanteinauto Racing Cars and the Soul of the Place Parma’S First 100-Km Motor Rally Starting Soon
    Press Release MERCANTEINAUTO RACING CARS AND THE SOUL OF THE PLACE PARMA’S FIRST 100-KM MOTOR RALLY STARTING SOON At Fiere di Parma, the event that has become a tradition for all car enthusiasts will hold the first “Raduno dei 100 km di Parma”, a 100-km motor rally amidst bucolic routes and a visit to the Dallara Academy. 500 models of classic cars will be on display at the exhibition centre, including the legendary inline-six BMWs from Old Cars Collection. (Parma, 31st May 2019) Racing cars, placidly moving their slinky lines on winding roads and charming routes, pushing their way through the beautiful sights that surround them. It looks like one of those old films that, even fifty years later, can still touch you and, maybe, make you dream. Cars, and a road to be placidly enjoyed. This is precisely the combination celebrated by Mercanteinauto, the event for car enthusiasts that takes place at Fiere di Parma in the first weekend of Mercanteinfiera, the international fair of antiques, modern collectibles and vintage art (5-6 October 2019). An event that goes beyond the boundaries of the considerable size of the exhibition (over 500 models) and, for its eighth anniversary, embraces the wandering soul of a region that must be explored to discover its charms and talents. The biggest news at Mercanteinauto this year (but it’s bound to become a very pleasant tradition) is the “Raduno dei 100 Km di Parma”, a 100-km motor rally organised in partnership with Old Cars Collection and Ruote a Raggi club, due to take place on Saturday, 5th October, starting from the exhibition centre in Parma and heading for Varano Melegari, where the drivers will be welcomed to the Dallara Academy.
