  9. This time it was tougher than some of you thought. I was looking for a 1948 -1950 Rovin D3. The differences between the D3 and it successor the D4 can be over seen when you see the car. And the internet isn't a help in that case. The car that I was asking for is also mentioned as a D4 but it isn't. I had taken the pictures at the 2018 Techno Classic in Essen/Germany and it was marked as a D3. But somer people say that this was a D4 although the description on this car said D3. So what are the differences.? Take a look at the pictures and you could see the second chrome strip ad the lower edge of the body. The grill is bigger than on a D3 and the D3 has sucide door. The engine of the D4 is also bigger (462 cc and 13hp)

  11. This van was build in thr German Democratic Republic or East German from 1961 - 1990. When it was released in 1961 compared to its western counterparts like VW Typ 2, Ford Taunus Transit or Tempo Viking , it was state of the art. In regard of roominess and suspension layout it was better the than the western counternparts.. The big drawback was the high fuel consumption of the 3 cylinder two stroke engine. Over its long production times it falls back behind its competiors, because the lack of improvements, as usual for cars from eastern europe during that era. I had driven this van in a comparision of different van concepts for a german classic car magazine. This 1963 Barkas B1000 competes against 1970 VW Typ 2 and my 1969 Ford Transit. There was no winner in this comparision, but the suspension of the Brakes was better than the one in the VW and Ford. It had a car like driving . The engine sound was annoying and the seating position for a 6'2" tall guy like me wasn't that cumfortable.

  18. The car that I was looking for was the 1959 - 1962 Borgward P100 called Grosser Borgward. The car was The First one with an air suspension in Germany. It compete with the Mercedes Benz 220S. After the bankcupcy of Borgward in 1961 the the P100 Production line was sold to Impulsa Mexicana Automotoriz S.A. in Mexico. But they run out of money. In 1966 a new company called FANASA build it as „230“ and „230 Pullman“. Production ends in 1970 again due to financial issue.

Meteor was a marque that was established in Canada in 1949 to provide Canadian buyers a car that was cheaper that a regular Ford that was sold in Canada. 1961 the name Meteor was dropped due to the fact that the Meteor name was used by Mercury.
