Volkswagen brings love of vending machines to car storage

There's something inexplicably fun about getting something out of a vending machine, particularly one with a cool dispensing mechanism. And if you're picking up your new car from Volkswagen's storage facility in Wolfsburg, Germany, "inexplicably fun" just isn't the word. The storage facility, which takes up just 20 percent of the space needed by comparable facilities, holds 20-story towers filled to the brim with new VWs. An automated arm raises up into the heavens of the building, retrieving the new owner's VW and bringing it to him/her in less time, and without the potential damage brought by human error.

Or if you hit two buttons at once, do you get say, a Golf and a Passat for the price of a Polo? ;)

I really really really really want one!!!

As in I want one to the point of wondering if he would swap or part exa very rare aerotop supra ;)

You put it together yet?

Thats pretty cool.... But weren't the !Removed! doing this in the late 80s??????

I daon't get how the cars are "placed" then "retrieved", as the wheels need to be on the ground, and the mechanism seesm to carrt them by the wheels... I doubt very much it jacks them up....

Looks cool.

There's been a multistorey car park in Leeds that does a similar thing, been there for years. Wouldn't trust it with any of my cars, probably couldn't afford to park there anyway :D

Or it'll get jammed just behind the flap, so you can reach it, but can't pull it out - bit like the monkey with the hand in the jar... :D
