TENERIFE, PICTURES TO REMEMBER.


Two VW T1 . The first an ambulance at Los Rodeos airport, and the 2nd a kombi in Puerto de la Cruz parked outside the IDERS building, long time closed due to aluminosis (building defects) which makes it a real danger for residents and pedestrians.

WOLFSBURG PROTOTYPES 2.


More protos at Wolfsburg Automuseum, a pair of cabrios ideal for Beach countries like Florida or the Canary Islands...


Even a two passenger electric city transporter...


Or this superb New Beetle Speedster (Beetster) by Kamei, a two-seaters open top full of energy and red like a devil...


Or this city car concept designed for low economy countries and similar to the VW Lupo in its concept...

Cars will never see on our roads but that surely we would like to, or at least try to drive for an hour or two like the Kamei Beetster!

The one below was the first VW Polo prototype:


Speed Records breaker:


More in the next entry.

Another Surviving Doka riding through town!
