seen a few days ago : a VW SUV painted Harlequin way.. thing is i was so in shock that i don't remember if it was a Tiguan or Touareg ( i think it was Touareg, looked too big for Tiguan but not enough for Atlas )

i really hope to see it again and be able to take a pic this time

Seen a few day ago in my small town (the picture could have been posted in the "Touristic" Licence plate thread too :wink: ):

The question is: even if electric and built by a very special company, is an SUV that exciting enough to deserve such a plate? :grin:

An SUV yes, but it depends on the model - an electric car never ever.

Chinese VWs are an occasional sight in my area (already seen a Terramont and a C-Trek) but they're usually new cars:

Seen today on the bus ride home: a 2005+ Roush Mustang. Unfortunately I didn't know they had stages so I can't say anything else.

Unfortunately I'm still too stupid to upload pics, so I cannot show you a hyper rearity, I've spotted today.

I had been in the town of Hünfeld in Hessia at KRAFTWERK

https://www.kraftwerk.cc/en/home

https://youtu.be/QIStfyj_MU0

to let throw out the annoying speed limit of 177 km/h.

Inside their hall there are Ferrari, Lamborghini, Viper and other powerful stuff, but nothing, I took attention about.

Neither I noticed the valuable stuff at the large Audi dealership or the Mercedes store a few meters away.

The car, which fell into my eyes, stands eithout license plates on the parking of the McDonalds nearby - an abandoned Fiat Tempra :grin:

So here's something I found on Flickr from one of the people I follow, a Jeep Cherokee [KL] Hearse in Chile. Something for Animatronixx:

Here are some other Chilean hearses. Make sure you go all the way down to the bottom where the Camaro hearses are:

Came out of the gate at NEVS tech department and rolled over to the factory area. Seems to be a NEVS 9-3 that is probably used as a testbed for something with a much wider track width.

About a motorbike and not a car, but certainly worth being seen, the winning photo of the brand new "Shipwreck" category of the 2020 Ocean Art “Safe Under the Sea” contest:

It was taken in the wreck of the SS Thistlegorm, a British ship built in 1940 and sunk by planes of the Luftwaffe in the Red Sea in October 1941. The wreck has apparently become a well known diving site.
According to Wikipedia:
The vessel's cargo included: Bedford trucks, Universal Carrier armoured vehicles, Norton 16H and BSA motorcycles, Bren guns, cases of ammunition, and 0.303 rifles as well as radio equipment, Wellington boots, aircraft parts, railway wagons[4] and two LMS Stanier Class 8F steam locomotives.

So, for experts, is it a Norton or a BSA? :smile:

(Some trucks and several other motorbikes can be seen in this video)

i missed a step somewhere or Polestar is now apart from Volvo ?

They're in the same group, use the same platforms and other parts, but produce their own (electric) cars: https://www.polestar.com/uk/
