Hello Martin,
This is an interesting image!
An awesome construction... Somewhere in the back of my head there is another image of this vehiecle, but I don't think I ever saw one live... This specimen looks like well kept for at least 35 years, the picture doesn't tell but are they three wheelers?
Regards,

Haha, Martin! I saw these all over the place in my childhood... in Budapest. A great reminder... a good catch!

Its a really intersting looking vehicle and it is sharp and well exposed.However it is a rather uninspiring composition and I would have preferred a lower angle to make it more of a photograph and less of a snap

A very stange and interesting car. I am not sure this is very confortable and strong, but it is really different. Very nice red color and very good sharpness.

All the best,

Emmanuel
