What's the big green truck?? And for fans of whacky rarities - a Vauxhall Cavalier with a German (Leipzig??) plate.
...


The green truck is a MAN 630, the old most common West German Bundeswehr truck:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAN_630

In the back they were sold via https://www.vebeg.de/web/en/start/index.htm

At the Bundeswehr are none of them left, but sometimes some were given away by civil protection units. But actually there aren't any in official use any more.


The plates are from Leipzig, but export-plates. Quite strange, if they were originally used on this car, as the Cavalier never appeared over here.




And I thought the Southeastern U.S. was the only place you'll find something like this.


Naah, it's a kind of fancy lifestyle-topic now, so upcoming in Europe, too.



Although I'm not already finished to upload my pics from our K 70-meeting a week ago, I'll start with the first impressions from my latest weekend-trip - with the K 70 to https://www.beaulieu.co.uk/ :smile:

Beginning with the sights, I've made around that event and on the whole tour:


On the ferry from Dünkirchen to Dover. When the owner saw me taking the pic, he was happy about the interest and told me, that he has bought it at new in 1980 and owns it since then. I refused the offer to sit in it - because I was anxious to stuck in it.

Parked in Eastbourne, where I stayed the first night:

Fortunately my K 70 had a dry place over the night, too :smile:

I was wondering about the smoke, it was a flat tire.

Here I could force the driver to stop, before smoke appeared - and before this rarity was in danger to be destroyed! Look at the back left tire!
