with on old coon is a b s. you'll find mercedes built decades ago. this is still going strong. cause the to me to know a marquee got bought. this car has done over 1000000 kilometers. you know, it's almost 30 years old. but all of their try you know that you get to your destination resolved any problem. as you've only been, then what this car tells you is all i can drive with 3 times around the globe and still be abandoned. am that's unique as you get what makes the call with the staff. so

a 2 man reduction down to the essentials was already revolutionary. back then. so i know that it will need to on, for construct us of messy this. they reached to present the most possible quality. keep it simple, keep it simple. i simply, as you can, you can always do it to simpler. fisher is an extremely busy in demand. been teach congress still. but once a year he takes the timeouts to embark on an expedition to africa. and among his trusty states, a mercedes models built between 19681997 of my will be a 2nd life. and in the winter time, and i drove down here from europe, from my workshop to my western africa. was us romero, co america,

even if you go through that and a long distance? that's you know, that you, you really go to the final destination. the classic con lover has in depth expertise on these miss cds classics. and he knows exactly what makes them so reliable. indestructible comes from the beginning of receipt. is the understanding of quality, especially in those took got her region. why stood god? because that's where called benz launched his pioneering automobile in 18. 86 visitors to the german town of i'm back might be surprised to see a mercedes benz from the dawn of the automotive iraq, still out in a bounce. and the oldest st. legal car in europe continues to impress to days, generation of. and ginny is that the tile in your eyes parts are so old,

but still work the thumb of guns and in technical thomas, this is what it can't have been. so adapt, given that our engine concept is still the same in the autumn, told it worked a 117 years ago and still does today. you look amazing before i've lost the technical workmanship is so precise. they took their time back then and didn't cross cut it to death. this was only a couple of spotwood sold on. you hadn't side not, it will bolt pull that expertise flowed into the iconic w 114, the 1st mistake he's built to the mass market. together with his sister, the 115 it sold some 2000000 units. the next step in the engineering evolution was the w. 1. 23, in turn succeeded by the w 124 belt between 198497. like its predecessors. it's regarded as the epitome of durability. as cam driver's light, blue eyed nina in albania, can testify with over 1000000 kilometers,

clocked up. peter fifa designed the next generation of the seemingly unbreakable car in the early eighty's was done by as is evident from the w. 120 for purism. that was chief of police most guns the, the w 124 was absolutely pure initially reduced to the essentials. so all of those nobility, keep it simple. i simply as you can, the engineering is, is not limited to any a kilometer range. and they wear boots better than it should be, or it could be, oh say these engineers at the time felt honored to be working for the world's oldest car maker and committed to building the best car on the planets. mary jo tyson from the international federation of historic vehicles as inspected a wide variety of cars for him. german quality is linked to german engineers

50 years ago. the marketing marketing didn't play a big role in product planning and product decisions. i saw it was indeed the engineers on the r and d side and also on the production side and who steered the products. ready the product range and product planning, and suddenly they looked in the 1st place, the bud good engineering quality. ah, a result of unmatched engineering. mercedes built decades ago in stuttgart. they're still just run and run and run in parts of africa. for example, where people are not in such a rush to dispatch comes to the scrap paper. the extended lifetime of the mercedes seems to be well, practically infinite. not only the quality of the cars very,

very high, but the metal of repairman of these cars is, is quite easy, because most of the competence, arg, simply mechanic. so berlin vintage candy lab work cod steins fixing up models, lightning mercedes w. $124.00 is a labor of love. i. as you can see, the engine compartment is sir, not sold food, just mechanics. you can know, work was very simple tools to repair them. the sparks and you can remove them in a couple of minutes. you have here in an engine without any tor, i'm not any boosting or compressors or something. ah, and as a closer look, reveals the shaft. see is just

a solid. the engine or everything is oversized, on the car, mechanically. and for example, the bearings here and you see it on the front exit. also. this is also very, very heavy. everything, the bearings are bigger than needed. that is the whole concept off the car to take the best material which you find the end of the possible is of using it. is born in the construction of the cos i'm to know the 124 is, is the, the peak of the mercy. this line concerning the quality after the 120 for the quality went down the late 9090. so the mercedes benz both is decide on a major change engineering was was limited

from the management the conference. so getting began and all the concurrent brands, they weren't much more money. the managers, they were in the situation that they have to bring more money to was a shareholders and bigger profits to some came into cost. the production and the buyers who are squeezed out to, to, to offer products at a very low price. and if you, if you press a supplier, if you don't get so same quality like before. and today's muzzle feature, a growing amount of electronics of colds which hasn't exactly improved their dependability. the modern cars, which are produced now, they will find the end in about 15 or maximum maximum, 20 years. different than these cars. these cars,

you can drive for eternity. as drivers from albania to africa and elsewhere, certainly appreciate as they stick with their old school. mercedes models cause built to last forever mate inch to campus. we've been burning fossil fuels or decades damaging climate with c o 2 emissions. many countries have now decided to ban vehicles with combustion engines by 2035 renewable synthetic fuel is known as e fuels could help in the fight to reduce c o 2. the pow share institute to the swiss town of milligan is looking into synthetic fuels. environmental scientist christiane bower is calculating their energy footprint. it's important because if synthetic fuels are to be manufactured,

they'll need to perform better than gasoline or diesel. the gun, the augustine, that they produced, for example, by using electricity to produce hydrogen via electrolysis, the hydrogen is then converted along with c o 2, which don't come from a variety of sources into synthetic hydrocarbon believe also still for e fuels need hydrogen, which is obtained from water through electrolysis and c o 2, which can be extracted from the air during the production process and then released again during combustion. ideally, e fuels would be c o 2 neutral. but electrolysis requires huge amounts of electricity, hopefully from renewable energy sources. is it worth it more and thomas is gone? sample can okay. currently it's still very expensive. and if you want to expand production on a large scale, you need a lot more renewable electricity. female la, bounced old, expensive, but fuel expert, christiane bah,

says the main advantage is that excess energy from wind and solar can be stored as e fuel. that's why he thinks e fuels have a future. didn't the keith lack of after vis and list? don't stick at all's hoot. the fuels will become much cheaper diva, not as cheap as electric motors or hydrogen engines for normal use order or to vosta, but they'll be cheaper for long range applications that are hydrogen and electron mobility shalaka of on to go also assist off on to elect, throw open the thought an electric motor is efficient for private cars, but e fuels may be the only way to reduce c o 2 in one industry in particular, aviation synthetic kerosene is the 1st expected application and swiss company st. haley on is already working on

e kerosene their pilot project in the german town of uli will soon be producing renewable fuel for commercial use. the basic ingredients of e kerosene are sunlight, water, and c. o 2. a large mirror field focuses the sunlight onto a receiver tower. there the water and c o 2 are converted thermal chemically into a synthetic gas, which in turn is liquefied into e, kerosene. the entire process is c o. 2 neutral. when converting sunlight into e, kerosene around 30 percent of the energy can be stored. the process has been tested and now needs to be tried. on a larger scale, sanskrit san sam says we'll probably start out the 1st commercial plant in spain, in 2025. then we'll gradually scale up production. we want to be producing 700000 metric tons of e kerosene by 2030 before about half of switzerland's kerosene consumption. by 2040,

we want to be producing $40000000.00 tons of the liquid fuel that would represent half of europe's kerosene needs the same for glad plant producing large amounts would have to be $100.00 times bigger. some 2 square kilometers in size with huge mirrors like these. because only small amounts are being produced at the moment. a leader of the fuel still costs around $8.00 to $10.00 times more than fossil fuel. the fuel is already being tested on a boeing $737.00 engine at zuric airport. they're measuring how much thrust it delivers under load and the combustion process for the synthetic. kerosene is also being thoroughly analyzed. of prob measures the composition of the emissions from the turbine it owns as a console. the sale to basically c o 2 is the main component for the c o. 2 emitted

by an airplane or any other emission source remains in the atmosphere for a very, very long time. it has a future impact for over a 100 years, but that was semi, so like an android suit emissions. there's a correlation with cloud formation. so controls or controlled clouds and values that comes from an interaction between small certain particles and the sulfur in the fuel draft. one thing, if you reduce them both, then you reduce the precursors that lead to the cloud formation, sierra wall to wall copy, which included the latest data gathered by the probe, shows that synthetic kerosene, burns cleaner, and produces fewer polluting emissions when powering the turbine. what's more, e kerosene could be blended by up to 50 per cent with any regular aircraft fuel to day. the e u is calling for mandatory blending of synthetic kerosene but initially and small amounts. policy makers and industry are still struggling to reduce c o. 2 emissions in aviation, the most environmentally friendly option is still to simply avoid flying.

i get a letter from the ref theme and for they i will present use of 5 fastest woman i ever met in my life. ah, i have some emotion, of course it's the noise of the bunch. ah ah, and he can forget the noise even today. i think we missed this kind of you know, i was on all the fall will i want tricks. and every time when i made an interior some of his mechanics, barry, the end to my best interview say, interrupted by sounds like says yes ma'am. okay. some people just called me fanny fanny. yes, that

a my life was full of pain. if my accent reminds you of nicky louder, it's not by chance. i'm austrian. when i was young i was a big fan of mickey watched every formula and i started to fet, left with i didn't. and the as the driver, informal of on just the shoreline is not like this. nana it's tough sport really concentrated than in america and let the college it's high concentration after the lien in your blood. you can't imagine i met him all his champions. but one day a girl took me on a ride round monaco and this was the 1st time i found out said a girl can drive faster and fed us and me, i lose my mind. this was the reason why i started focusing on female through i left a lot of support, which is the man whoa, completely. nevertheless,

a present, you know, my very personal core of the 5 fastest woman in the room. okay. let's that number 5 . there is one woman with an extraordinary strong spirit to fight sophia flash. grace driver from germany. he was one of the hardest competitors of michael schumacher and mic in formula 3. but san says horrible. crash in macau. ah. i watched so many times. okay, now and also i think talking about it helps whole to watch cuz the consequentialist is hold. what happened so fast? no thing. before i saw the video, i didn't know that i was flying for me. it didn't feel that bad. and then the pain started kicking in. oh,

she was really lucky to so why. but how she handles his sat back says impressed me very much on a matter 1st time after i never was really skied, she not be able to continue. i hope that everyone will see me again as the girl racing and the girl racing boston, beating the other drivers and not to go with the crash. and now everybody wants her to get a lot of great the office in all different racing few from la mall to formula 3, where she can gather experience for formula. one good luck to feel well that you like out. it's that a woman that has already driven in for one. if my mom before susie lloyd, i met her 1st in 2006 when she was driving into the german 3 countries

for sure. this was just, i think there's always joking that women racing but me been something you know, i listen to i last and i ignore it because when i'm in the east to have my him on. and i push as hard as the guys and i get to speak to the guy in and i get them to really kept on fighting. and in 2014, after more than 20 year, again, a woman was driving him for willow. had to work harder for their sake to the people around. when i entered the new scene, whether you see things in the car, championship or williams, the formula, there was probably more skepticism in the room when i walked in. instead of maybe a young driver pat session, she goes faster than it may finish the math. but you never got the chance to start a new phillip or must have was a teammate of mikey schumacher and he was challenged quite hot by

a woman. that's what i learned a he didn't veto. yeah. comes from and now and then i think that's one here. i am sitting in con the mean in this nice cafe should buys and not so long ago. well maybe it was a while ago. i was standing 50 meters away with embrace trophy in my hand and down . in lower my number is the 1980s. she was one of the hardest competitors of my consumer in formula 3 finished really not bad for women. whenever i hear things like that, it makes me want to screen some wes, thing you can say to me then to can 10. she moved to the toys car championship and over to total a want to like kick it off. good. finally,

all the big names, images but were driving in dtm this year and to be all these guys is really special for me. it was the only time a woman one in 5th, racing serious. do you, do you remember this race? did you ever see it crashed a little bit, but she did it her way a lot. and then this girl took before. right? you got lines with my number 2. she brought me this shocking experience. i told you already in the beginning for the 1st time in my life, i really felt it says the woman driving faster than me. but having,

having fell sis under my skin, i started to trust in her and santa i followed her until the book too, was really crazy. no matter what happened. ben did the attacking, say, really, sand storms, apparently hill. the fact that everything. but you the always managed to arrive right in time for our life leagues. melisha. exactly. i just go in and rushed here for the interview with you. i don't know anything about today's results yet. no gun is ok now because i given us ideas for me as a journalist to pay it off to follow her through the death of africa because in 2001 she won. the 1st time is the only time. a woman wants the hardest. it wasn't required when i dreamed of winning the decor and now i've won it. i didn't think it's really sunken yet. nevertheless, next the

a team order was issued to prevent her to win again. youth are driving for mitsubishi. the chaplain is ca, company, and to beat 2nd time in the role japanese drivers was not possible in the world. motorsport. if you are in a team, it's my own experience. in the beginning, they like that you are, they are because you're good for the sponsors because you get more attention. but in the end of the days, i don't really believe in you, and it's very hard to get the best material in the tea. ah, best born woman that attracts all of these tough guys. they all flock together. when she calls, she organizes one c as a race of champion, a charity race was a champion of all categories of motor sports come together and compete. you know, you have 2 identical costs and you have 2 minutes to be the best one. so everybody wants to be the best. all the male champions,

remember how she drove over the relic face? michelle will go to one and only when i'm running it's it's exactly to have the car to drive and not to know where you have to go in to try to. these are 1st and this is very exciting. she won several races in really all championship in 82, she lost the title in a very close run for him by zillow. and after finishing has carrier as a driver. he started to fight for female rights as the head of the organization. woman in motorsport and her message is quite simple. just come and try to join us and try this experience of course. and the experience i think is

most of it is motivation. you know, when you are really motivated to do something you, you try all the time and you try and you try and sometimes you get a woman. thank you for the to see you. let me know. i have some emotion. of course, it's the noise of the question mm. or more automotive tales tune in for the next episode of ran mm ah. with
