I am leaving soon to hopefully buy one of my dream cars. Updates will follow.

Car was bought on page 2.

Great stuff! Hope you have a good journey and the car is great!

 

Any clues about what type of car it is? (People usually like to guess😁)

Thank you and i hope so.

And can give some clues.

The car is old, very old. Will be among the oldest cars on here and the oldest car I have owned, if it is a purchase.

It most likely started life as a taxi and I wouldn't be surprised if it has done half a million kilometers or more.

These cars were very popular taxis in their day.

I have also never driven such an old car before and if I buy it, it is at least 6 hours driving home in a heat wave in it.

Deleted my last 2 replies. Because I'm not sure since i am new to this, should I answer the guesses or let you wait?

You all are getting very close to guessing what this is. Not sure if I want to reveal it now as I like to surprise.

And it has a diesel engine.

Unterwegs in Berlin im ältesten Taxi der Stadt – @GillyBerlin

OR

CTTaxiCo If you know me, the Mercedes W123 has a very warm place in my  heart. And when I visited Berlin earlier this year, I almost cried in joy  knowing they're still

This is what my money is on. Or something very similar, I have no idea on the model numbers etc

God tur!

I am going to guess at an IFA - I've seen a few in Norway and suspect they worked as Taxis, way back. 

Where in Norge will the car be?

A cake. Of breakfast?

A breakfast. Cake?

*Walks to far side of stage*

Did you just say a breakfast cake?

Am I hearing you right?

A cake for breakfast? Bluddy world's gone mad.
