Today I saw a few rare or interesting cars.
At first in Dortmund a very early Saab 93 in perfect condition. It must have been a privte import, because before 1967 Saab's weren't sold in Germany.
10 minutes later two ultimative Opel's: a Diplomat B 5.4 and a Bitter CD!
Later on we brought my wife's Astra G to an Opel-garage, due a recall-programme of Opel. All Astra G's front axles had to be checked.
My father-in-law's Astra G gor a complete new front axle for the costs of Opel.
On the way to the second next village I saw an US-car on the roof of a "Pommesbude" ("French fries stall" in the USA, "chip shop" in Britain. Just a little one, not a big diner in US-style or so).
I'm not 100% percent sure, but I think, it was a 1981 Buick Regal. Obviously without engine, gearbox and suspension.
The Opel-dealer ( http://www.opel-hueppe.de )
had several real classic Opel's parked in his showroom, even several cars from 1905 to 1940. They belonged to the owner, the guy has told us.
He was a bit irritated, when I'm asked him: "We would take an exchange-car for the time of the job, but I want to have the red one in the left back corner"
It was a 1969 Opel GT
This was not possible, so my wife will take my Omega for the next days.
This dealer was recommended by neighbours and makes a good and friendly impression. But the positive impression was a bit pushed down (in my eyes), when I saw the asked price of one used car.
For a "G-Mann-car"
, a 1997 Omega B 2.5 CD Caravan with 95 000 km they want to have 8950 €! This is a total unrealistic joke.
My wife told me, that she pays for a totaled Omega like this (she works in the claim-department of a car-insurance) maximum 4000 Euro.
