The last three days I was with my godson in Berlin to showing him a bit the town.
The most noticable car was a 1952/53 only Borgward 2400 with Berlin plates on the way back on the A2 nearby Gamer-town.
I cannot find the photo here, but I'm very sure, that the 1970ies Mercedes T2 with the advertisement for a model train shop, which is parked at the corner Kurfürstendamm/Rankestr. is already listed in the database.

I'm more interested in the MG ZS with the air vent in the front wing. I've never seen those before.
I think that means it's a ZS 180 with the 2.5 V6 after the 2004 facelift, which gave it a boyracer bodykit.

Yeah, that's it, not so uncommon and available as an option on the lower versions.

I didn't really notice that one when taking the picture.
Unfortunately the original photo does not show much more of it, here is the part framed around the MG.

Seen on the highway on Friday - a Toyota Celsior [UCF10] on German plates (!) from Hamburg.
It had Lexus logos, but the badges clearly said the JDM name. Also had bright yellow DRLs. Only my fourth JDM sighting in Germany after:
- a silver S170 Toyota Crown on red plates in a suburb of Braunschweig, May 2018
- a metallic purple, yellow and silver JDM SF Subaru Forester, with winged front badge and RHD, December 2020.
- a Nissan Skyline (if memory serves either R33 or R34) on my block, late 2021.

That's what known as a cruel joke. The Jetta Flair 1 was available on the other side of the Atlantic:

The FBI drives Durango
https://www.tagesschau.de/ausland/amerika/trump-durchsuchung-105.html
- but not mine civil police version (o.k., that was made for Argentina)
Today at the ride to my office in Dortmund, I saw a shabby Opel Astra F with 1990ies Ukrainian plates - and a brand new Tesla S and a now Dodge RAM, also with Ukrainian plates.
And something really rare - a 1978 VW Passat.
And an early Porsche 944 with first plates in DIN font.

Thumbs up for the MGB - looks like a final runout Limited Edition for US market (6,682 made 1979-80) in black with silver lower side tapes, starfish alloys, front spoiler, should have bright stripey seats. They stopped doing LHD roadsters in 76 for any market except US, so must be a private import.
Sandie might approve of the Streetwise. Diddy towhook suggests true lifestyle adventurers??
