A Milestone

Just before the end of last year, Automotive Views (AV) reached an important landmark; well, it’s important to a blog of this nature anyway…one hundred thousand visitors, a small number to popular blogs, but considerably relevant to me. I rarely get to update AV, once a month is usually all I manage. I keep wishing I had more time to spend here but so far, that hasn’t been a possibility. Still, I love keeping AV and I won’t quit, so this number is definitely cause for celebration.

I dug in the archives and thought a bit about what would be appropriate to post in this occasion; these are what I came up with: factory/production pictures. Nothing seemed more fitting than a few pics of the birth of legends, so here they are, for your enjoyment.

Thank you very much to everyone who stops by, happy 2014 people!
