YouTube - Self-made video for Autobahn (Kraftwerk) - 1/3

This song was originally released in 1974, the precursor to today's "techno". They called it "machine music" back then. Nice footage of a W123 too, appears to be a late 70s/early 80s gasser. Something about those bundts though, look a little different.

Either Kraftwerk has aged or I have - it used to sound cutting edge to me, but not that song. As for the w123, I'd say it's a diesel because he gets in the slow lane, stays there, and gets passed by everyone.

Those bundts don't have the typical rim flange. Either they're repro or bundt-like hubcaps.

There a few different version floating around. I believe the album "The Mix" has the newer mix.


It's a lot better live.

I found out from the guy who posted the vid that it was a gasser.
