[mercrocker]

Love the proper Skodas....that bubble appears to be an Isetta repro of some kind.  Cartell has it down as an "Iseeta"  - there was a kit doing the rounds a few years back.  Don't see the Comecon connection though.   Never mind, plenty of other Iron Curtainage there - looked like a great day out.

Love that yellow Scud coupe.......amazing that the saloon is just so fucking ugly and then this looks so right and beautifully proportioned.

 

I want one.........can't quite believe it but I really really need one of those

(The tatty red wartburg)

 

I met this car and its owner (that's him next to it) he was nice chap, told me he never washes it and that the Wartburg club were embarressed of him and were trying to ban him from events til he smartened his car up... I thought it was great though

That's FSO master Cyanide Steve's isn't it?

[ChinaTom]

Are there any Melkus' in the UK? I expect not as there would have been one there I guess.

That Tatra...

[Shep Shepherd]

I love the RHD Wartburg Knight

[Justin Case]

Nice selection of the sort of stuff we never normally see, I've never seen a Tatra in the flesh; thanks for posting. JPS Rapid, or is it Rapid JPS, is one of a special edition (of 90?) to mark the 90th anniversary of something (first Skoda car ?), hence the registration. It was originally in the Patrick Collection with zero miles, nice to see that it survived the break-up and is still like new
