The Oktoberfest is a two-week festival full of Bavarian beer that takes place during late September and early October in Munich, Germany, with some six million people attending every year. As every festival that respects itself (…), Oktoberfest has its own Playmate. The '07 Oktoberfest playmate was Munich´s Anna Scharl. While we wouldn’t mind taking the green eyed brunette for a swift test ride (in the car, as a companion of course…), we blog about cars so time to explain the connection between the Loder1899's Ford S-MAX and Anna Scharl. The tuned S-MAX was presented at Oktoberfest and it served as a chauffeur vehicle to the 22-year-old’s photo shooting in the Now that we’ve made that clear, let us concentrate on Loder1899’s proposition. The tuning company has equipped Ford’s sporty 7-seater MPV with a custom made, carbon-fiber bodykit. The carbon fiber parts include spoilers, side skirts, front wings, side wings and side gills. Additionally, Loder1899 has developed a paintable material (FGRP: fiberglass reinforced plastics) that the company says “joins and blends in flawlessly with the S-Max’s bodywork”. Loder1899 also offers two distinctive wheel designs, the classic “Jacky” in 18 to 20 inch with stainless steel, silver, black or white coloured applications and the alloy wheel “Sins”. A tyre/wheel set with „Sins“-wheels in 18 inch starts from €475 or $633.
In terms of power, Loder1899 also maximizes the output of the S-Max 1.8 TDCi & 2.0 TDCi diesel engines from 140 hp to 165 hp and from 125 hp to 155 hp respectively. In combination with Loder1899's handcrafted 2x100mm exhaust systems there is an increase in engine power from 220 hp to 270 hp for the 2.5 litre turbo engine. Optionally, Loder1899 also offers a 35mm suspension system.
