Well here's something I never saw before:
https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7927/46473383375_2b6650f00a.jpg 1976 Lancia ß (Beta) FF Felber

It's not my photo, but someone I follow on Flickr.

Well here's something I never saw before:

I'd say, that noone else of us ever saw this car.

It's a Felber Lancia, based on the Beta.
Wiki says
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felber_Automobiles
(sorry, not on English) "a few of them were built" - so the exact numbers are unknown.



Yesterday I saw a bunch of Opel-prototypes, as it seems the next Insignia and Mokka, also a few camouflaged large Pick Ups in US style.
We had a meeting of the association of German classic car clubs, hold as the years before at the Opel Test Center in Rodgau-Dudenhofen nearby Rüsselsheim

(Dutch, but the best pics from Dudenhofen - making pics is absolutely forbidden there).


And now for something completely different!
For our DVLA-checkers:

PVF 6

spotted yesterday, too.

unfortunately a photo was not possible :ohwell:

In Eupen/Belgium I spotted today a car dealer with two illuminated "Lada official dealer" signs from the 80ies.

Very nice. Not really that exotic, but the hideaway headlights and slightly more aerodynamic front end gives it a bit of distinction, even if the rest of the car is just a standard 1970's 5-door hatchback.

I saw this Ram 3500 towing a 1970's Kenworth K-100, a Clark forklift and other items on a flatbed last March.

Yes, it was this Adenauer-Benz, in the condition as visible on the photos.

It was on a trailer with German plates going northbound on the A45 from Frankfurt direction Dortmund.


@Sandie: when I had been on Gran Canaria over 20 years ago, I was bewildered about the plenty of cars with expired and/or forged German and other Middle European plates...

also seen this summer, 1998-2002 Toyota Corolla painted as the Jurassic Park Explorer ( no pic for same reason as above but my camera was still working back then )

I was only able to take a quick picture, but I think the odd one out is pretty obvious. Spotted just outside the town of Rendsburg/Schleswig-Holstein:

Indeed. However, this is not the first Suzuki Equator I've photographed. My college campus has TWO of these! The same with the Monterey, second time I've found one!
