BMW Museum Munich

[Beemer]

As there wasn't much happening in Salzburg on the Sunday John and I decided to visit the BMW museum at Munich along with a visit to the Munich Olympic village well known for the terrorist attack on the Israeli athletes in 1972.

Austin 7 Dixi that was built by BMW under licence. The first BMW. How things have moved on.






Clay mock-up of real car.

My favourite

Thought the 'Bubble Car' was an 'Isetta' it looks nothing like a Me 110

The Olympiaturm. 291 metres high and the lift ascends at 7 metres per second


BMW factory, showroom and museum.


Olympic village where the athletes lived, and some died


Olympic complex with football stadium where England beat Germany 5-1 in september, 2001.


Thanks for looking. Regards Beemer.

The Bubble Car is Isetta made by BMW, built under licence in a number of different countries.

BMW 250 Isetta


...not to be confused with the one Fred "the weather man" drives around in that I think is a Messerschmitt .
