new addition to the Topcat Fleet!

Post by TopCat »

Bought something this week as a surprise wedding present for fiance!

on ferry as I write with car on trailer- we have been rebuilding the red shed to hide it- the one that nearly accounted for the Camper!

Now some info:
1 It originated in Germany
2 It qualifies for £12 Road Tax (pre 1985)
3 It is convertible

can you guess what it is........................?

I used to dream of owning a beach buggy. I had one for a month in Rhodes and it was great fun. I've never been so sun burnt before or since! :lol:
