Car fanatics GT and Dave set off on a road trip in search of abandoned or forgotten classic cars (as well as other memorabilia) to buy and sell for serious profit. Their journey features the spectacular scenery of the West Australian Outback, but this is no sightseeing trip – with their own money on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher as the boys decide which cars to buy, and how much to spend. Over the series, they uncover and restore 20 classic cars from the USA, Japan, Great Britain and Europe.

Automania

July 2025 •German

The two-part documentary “Automania” unfolds the history of the automobile as a relationship between man and machine. The car: drug, technical wonder, object of desire. Like hardly any other machine, the car is more than that. It is loved, cherished and cared for, protected and used for self-expression. At the same time, it is a sign of economic prosperity: whoever drives a (certain) car has made something of himself. And what applies individually also applies to societies: The car creates jobs and prosperity. But the dream relationship that lasted for 100 years has fallen into crisis. The films tell in an entertaining, moody and emotional way about the rise of the car to become an icon of the West and suggest future prospects. The films combine factual informations with nostalgically colourful memories of eyewitnesses. In addition, there are statements by experts as well as politicians and business representatives.
