Magnificent Rustbucket Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I do love the W116. The sad rustling anorak in me can identify that as a 280SE since it lacks headlamp wipers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebus Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 I go to Germany a few times a year for work, this time was Hannover - few older cars with the exception of 3A Passats (almost extinct in the UK it seems), MK2 Golfs and lots of Lupos as well as 3B Passats. Saw 3 mint air-cooled VWs, a 62-63 Beetle, a late 60's Karman cabrio and an earlt type 3 notchback.

Kringle Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Those chod dealers look grim, if they were all in a scrapyard it would have some level of excitement as you dont know what gems* you may find, but when its a thinly spread out pate of crud you can imagine the soul crushing that customers may feel when they have to go there. Germany doesnt have anything like the variety of shagged out cars that somewhere like portugal has, or Croatia. Is that because of their TUV standards naturally culling older cars?
