Leipzig, Germany
A very tall man was standing in front of the just produced GUMPERT apollo. He assembled his team around him and while one of them was keeping an eye on the super sports car, they were talking about the further approach. After a while they got started. Two guys holding long bars were running behind the car and two guys holding a black machine crouched down in front of it. "Fire it off!" screamed one of them. Immediately, just like in a thunderstorm flashes were flaring up the bars which the two guys behind the car held. "One more!" For a second time the tall guy pulled the trigger of his machine. Silence came up. Everyone was stressed. Suddenly the first picture occurred on the screen of the laptop. „Guys!" the photographer was yelling to his assistants behind the car: "I need the lights more left..."

Very similar to this the first day of an exclusive photo shooting for the all new GUMPERT brochure started. Therefore the just produced blue apollo sport was shot in an exceptional scenery at the, build in 1949 Alfred Rosch velodrome in Leipzig, Germany. For eleven hours, the photographers of the "torpedo" agency and the GUMPERT team were working together to put the right light on the apollo at the cycling track with a steep of up to 38°. Also company founder Roland Gumpert got in sight of the cameras with the youngest offspring of the GUMPERT Sportwagenmanufaktur.

Airport Altenburg-Nobitz, Germany

Right after sunrise the second day of the GUMPERT shooting started. At six o'clock in the morning the platoon of two apollo and the teams from torpedo and GUMPERT were entering the misty airport Altenburg-Nobitz. Just the right time to get some spectacular shots and to get the two GUMPERT apollo going. After a short warm up, the silent morning was interrupted by the cars hitting the runway. The photographer was lying in his car, half outside the opened trunk and half out on the asphalt. His car was escorted by a motorcycle equipped with the necessary lighting. The two apollo were following with humming engines in 2m distance. Unswervingly the photographer directed the drivers to get the best shots of the super sports car in spectacular angles.

As scheduled and right before the first landing, the two surface to surface missiles from GUMPERT cleared the runway for every day flight operations. Obviously, everyone involved was happy with the shots of the last two days"
