What's the identity of this car?

Octavia · June 27, 2009, 12:12:49 PM

1950's Troll

Quiller · June 28, 2009, 08:31:30 AM

Not a Troll ...

Quiller · July 19, 2009, 05:47:12 PM

Your go...

DynaMike · July 19, 2009, 06:50:03 PM

Looks Volkswagen based....

Quiller · July 20, 2009, 05:21:27 AM

Indeed ...

In the late fifties this car was built by students of the karrosseriesbauschule Kaiserlauteren. I don't think it had a proper name, though...

Quiller · July 20, 2009, 05:38:04 AM

Yup!

Allemano · July 20, 2009, 05:47:47 AM

Actually it's the Karosseriebauschule Kaiserslautern (named after the German city)

They also built another more famous car:

That Dutch page has lots of typos. Vergo/Verga; Vigale/Vignale...
Even though it may exist a Duch pronuncation for Kaiserslautern...

DynaMike · July 20, 2009, 07:19:32 AM

You're right, Allemano. I just used copy/paste and I didn't check the correct spelling... Indeed Dutch speaking people (not al Dutch sites are from Holland

) would pronounce it rather like Kaiserslauteren, but in this site they also missed the s: Kaiser[]lauteren... and they missed the capital beginning letter; karosseriebauschule schould have been Karosseriebauschule.

Alles gut jetzt hoffentlich ...

Allemano · July 20, 2009, 10:30:07 AM

Perfect Sir, perfect!

DynaMike · July 20, 2009, 12:10:12 PM

Almost perfect: Karrosseriesbauschule should be without the s in the middle

Allemano · July 20, 2009, 12:22:59 PM

"Kaiserslauterner Meisterschule für Karosserie- und Fahrzeugbau" müsste es eigentlich ganz korrekt heißen!

Too many letters in one word for us poor English-speakers

I remember learning German aged 13 and being told the word for 'speed limit'. I think it was "Hochgeschwindigkeitsbegrenzung"

Allemano · July 21, 2009, 03:55:57 AM

"Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung" is enough, but usually our lazy German politicians use the word(s) "speed limit',,,
