verdier Platine or Nottingham Analogue hyperspace

They are still in business ? The site looks like we’re in the 90’s again :))
I always liked the design of this turntable, i think La Platine Verdier model is beautiful.

But i thought they do not make any turntables anymore, mainly because of the site which looks like the last update was made 25 years ago (my impression and i’ve seen it before).

For example there are many Micro Seiki websites like this, but it’s just history of the brand, they do not make any turntables anymore.

So JC Verdier is still in business in your opinion ?
Reviews and information on that site is from the 80’s and tonearm on that turntables are from the same era like Audio Craft AC4400. It’s a time machine to the 80’s or what ? Did i miss something? 

The topic started 14 years ago, where the fffff you can get Verdier Platine  nowadays ?

I think it is rather ugly. It is function over form.

La Platine Verdier  is definitely not ugly, especially in OMA plinth, it is absolutely beautiful. I think it's state of the art design. 

It’s been my personal experience in this eccentric, analog part of the hobby; that the best and longest lasting companies do not need fancy websites. Just an email and phone number, and referrals.

You forgot to mention a fax then.
It's not about something "fancy", it's about usability in the modern digital world, when people browse from mobile devices and order everything online to save the time, website can be very simple and almost fee (except the hosting). The time when designers charged too much for a website are gone, websites themes are free and ready to use, the owner have to upload his own images and text, this is very easy. 

The old school communication is OK when you're over 60, but when someone selling super expensive high-end gear and can't even manage a website it's kind of weird. Older people could easily ask their children to manage a website. There are some funny looking old school websites online from such old manufacturers, i bought my Yamamoto amp not so long ago, amazing amp, but company website is a time machine to the late 90's, look at this. I respect the reputation of the manufacturers, but they must think about their younger customers a bit too. Internet changed a lot since the late 90's and ignoring is not a good idea for business. 

This is a nice website from High-End manufacturer and here is another one.  Both are very simple and almost fee to do.

Why are you showing us a car without an engine ?
the OMA link you show is a Plankenstein.
The Verdier concept and design has been destroyed.  

here is the one with engine, what was destroyed ? 

@ibelchev well thanks for the hidden things, very interesting 
however, the answer was given to say it is a beautiful design (original or OMA), you are as the owners can judge the performance, i do not own this turntable and not willing to buy it, but i like the design concept. 

p.s. i'm using AT's pneumatic footers for my audio gear too.
