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.

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.

I've not added anything to this thread for a long time, let's start with a badge-engineered obscurity:
90s Volvo police car spotted on the set of a period film:
Quantum kit car:
Nice SAAB:
Ugly Escort:
Some sightings from the Canary Islands:
Who says the Panda is an endangered species?
Possibly the last car in the world one would expect to be plastered in Harley Davidson logos:
Would have been more suited to this thing:
Exumed Shogun badly facelifted by the Koreans:
Exumed Series Land-Rover badly facelifted by the Spanish:
Back to Britain for a badly photographed Cortina:
Retro Fleur de Lys van used by Tunnock's Teacakes as a marketing tool, spotted parked outside my local supermarket:
Something similar, but for Animatronixx, an Imperial hearse based on the chassis of an old London Taxi:

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...

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!
