^^^ Funny bumpers!  And some land rover vibe, too. The dutch fiat fan scene has some obscurities obviuosly. I remember someone here at RR with some light commercial fiat truck that was also new to me, but haven't read for quite a while from him. |

That's ace. Thought for a moment it was in Overdie but a quick Google suggests it's a few km further south!

^^ From a time when everybody wanted some 345s at the rear. Even Golf, Escort or Kadett drivers. |

Full Koenig equipped cars were expensive, almost twice as much as the base car on its own. IIRC they did some user wide bodied ferraris too.

One of the adds pics shows the front page of a sales brochure, there You can see their repertoire.  Although I'm german I can't remember any Koenig Specials Lambos or Porsches, but pictures of a lot of Ferraris, some SLs, 6 series bimmers and a few XJSs. |

The Fiat Vignale Samantha - apparently based on the 125. First time I saw one of these was in the latest copy of Practical Classics I saw yesterday. A gorgeous thing - looks a bit like the Bitter CD's cute little sister.  |

A gorgeous thing - looks a bit like the Bitter CD's cute little sister. I had one, 25 years ago. Smaller car than you think. Had no money and no knowledge to save such a car. You could hear it rust away on the drive. Swapped it for a good 600 with a 850 engine and drivetrain and build my first 600 abarth convertible... Those were the days..... |

Found this today, never heard of it and made in Holland. I know it’s not retro as it’s new but has the looks of the FJ40 and interesting nonetheless. Toyota Amphicruiser.   Similar looks to my FJ I guess!  |

Never heard (or seen) of a Renault Colorale, a real workhorse of the 50s, the size of an Austin FX4 London taxi cab.  Sorry for he bad picture taken in a complete strangers garden, I didn't want to bother him too much. |
