wlaidlaw Posted October 22, 2020 Share #13761 Posted October 22, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) Nigel, I suspect the Prinz and TT cabriolets I can find pictures of were as you surmise, all third party coachbuilder conversions. There is one for sale in Italy at the moment at a very optimistic €13,000 asking price with the 3 cylinder 659/30 PS engine, so no ball of fire. Still when you see people asking and getting £12,000 or more for a resprayed 2CV, there are obviously people around with more money than sense.

Graham (G4FUJ) Posted October 22, 2020 Share #13762 Posted October 22, 2020 £12k for a 2CV?? World's gone doolally! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted October 22, 2020 Share #13763 Posted October 22, 2020 I had a 2CV and sold it at the end of the 80s to a guy who collected 2 CVs and wanted one for his newborn daughter to give it to her as a present when she gets 18. He said that he will vacuum-pack it. Let's hope that she kept it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NigelG Posted October 22, 2020 Share #13764 Posted October 22, 2020 I’ve seen a few decent “Prinzes” for sale in the last few years and find myself drawn to the very simple base models. Maybe it’s a touch of 70s nostalgia but I’d love one of the orange ones with the spartan black vinyl/cord carpet interiors... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted October 23, 2020 Share #13766 Posted October 23, 2020 It looks a bit like a Peugeot 304 convertible (apart from the rubber trim!). Philip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip. Not a 304 convertible which is larger. We had one when I was young, lovely car, color "jaune mais", "S" = 75 hp, had such a huge trunk for shopping wine in France and lot´s of camping gear. Sometimes I do miss it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizard Posted October 23, 2020 Share #13769 Posted October 23, 2020 Hmm, the front end looks like a BMW 700 Cabriolet, but the rear end, and the taillights in particular do not quite match. May be this is a very early model of the BMW 700 Cabriolet? Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It uses some BMW 700 parts, but this vehicle is something different though. A BMW 600 EGB convertible. Never heard of it? Well, it´s not a works prototype or series car. A private custom made ex-crash BMW 600 chassis rebuilt with a self made convertible body in the 700 style but much smaller. 19,5 hp, 90 km/h. Built by Benedikt Schon in Germany. Only one exists. EGB = Eigenbau (self-made). Here you get a side-by-side view with a "real" 700 cabrio. Over to you! Welcome, dear visitor!

NigelG Posted October 23, 2020 Share #13771 Posted October 23, 2020 Had the same issue connecting the front image to the rear one (Hey...what happened to the fins?) 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the side strip is much to massive, nearly like the ugly one on the Victoria Spatz 250. "Bumper car" comes to my mind 😉 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, Ronald, that's a one-off special indeed! Never ever heard of that one before. May I ask you to carry on with another one, please? First, I did not quite guess it right anyway, and second I do not have an appropriate pic available right now (I need to prepare one for those winning occasions 🙂).
