  • Found in a garage where it had been stored virtually untouched for 50 years, this 1937 Bugatti Type 57s Atalante sports car is previewed for the first time before a Bonhams auction in Paris on February 7th 2009. Here, we see a detail of the damaged driver's seat with horse hair in a garage/studio before the auction and sale in Paris. In 2008 the Bugatti Type 57S with chassis number 57502 built in 1937 with the Atalante coachwork for Earl Howe was discovered in a private garage in Newcastle upon Tyne, having been stored untouched for 48 years and known about only by a select few people. It was auctioned in February 2009 at the Retromobile motor show in Paris, France, fetching EUR3.4 million (US$4.6 million), becoming one of the highest valued cars in automotive history, owing much to its extremely low mileage, original condition and ownership pedigree.

  • On a bright summer afternoon, a young spoiled girl shows-off by riding her favourite motorized Barbie trike along The Parade, the main promenade in the north Welsh seaside town of Llandudno, Wales. Wearing a bright pink helmet and travelling on the matching pink toy bike, she trundles along with the low-tide coast over her left shoulder. Barbie is a best-selling fashion doll launched in 1959 and produced by Mattel, Inc. The brand's merchandising reaches far and wide to countries and cultures around the world and this little girl seems to be the happiest on the beach, enjoying a generous present perhaps from a parent. She is the exact age that Mattel are targeting when they market these toys to accompany their dolls and accessories though the industry has come under fire for its controversial stereotyping of gender and subtle sexuality.

  • Interested potential buyer browses a Mini car dealership in London's Park Lane. The Mini is a small car that was made by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000.

  • As the late light turns into twilight blue, the warm orange glow of two caravan campers can be seen through both the front and rear windows of their caravan at the Trewethett Farm Caravan Club Site, Tintagel, Cornwall.  The wife watches TV at the back while the husband reads his newspaper shows the small world that caravanners enclose themselves in when on a camping holiday. Caravanning is one the favourite leisure pastimes in Britain, its association, the elite Caravan Club, was founded in 1907 and now represents nearly 1 million members (caravanners, motor caravanners and trailer tenters) and has an  annual turnover of £86 million. On the open road, the caravan is as ridiculed and despised for its slowness and the width it occupies on narrow country lanes.

  • A motor launch passes a narrow boat with parrot and dog in the early morning on a still River Thames at Dorchester, Oxfordshire. In the foreground is a caged parrot and a small Scotty dog. We see a scene of early misty light across the perfectly still waters, a landscape of peace and tranquillity. The mirror-like surface is at Dorchester-on-Thames, just above the Thame's confluence with the River Thames. The River Thames is the second longest river in the United Kingdom and the longest river entirely in England (215 miles or 346 km long). It rises at Thames Head in Gloucestershire, and flows into the North Sea at the Thames Estuary. Historically the Thames was only so-named downstream of the village; upstream it is named the Isis, and Ordnance Survey maps continue to label the river as "River Thames or Isis" until Dorchester.

The Emirates Air Line (also known as the Thames cable car) is a cable car link across the River Thames in London built with sponsorship from the airline Emirates. The service opened on 28 June 2012 and is operated by Transport for London.

A gondola lift, also called a cable car, is a type of aerial lift which is supported and propelled by cables from above. It consists of a loop of steel cable that is strung between two stations, sometimes over intermediate supporting towers. The cable is driven by a bullwheel in a terminal, which is typically connected to an engine or electric motor. ..
