A desert trip.
For one point, please respond and identify all vehicles on this picture.

From the left: Fiat 128, VW T2 first series, ???, Magirus 4x4 exact type ?
T1 was a typing error, I meant T2 and I also forgot the beetle. 1302 or 1303, photo too blurred. The little red one with the rear engine is really tricky.
The problem child is a Saporozhez 965?
The all-wheel drive magirus should be a Merkur or a Saturn, changed to single tyres at the rear-axle.

Yes, a first series T2. The beetle is probably an early 1302.

It is a VW prototype, not a Golf though.
Locked for you.

Yes, the puzzle is still locked for ducamax66.
My apologies - I missed the second page.
Vw EA 266?
Yes, well found! It is an early EA 266 prototype. I'll give you a point for that and hold another one on offer for the correct type designation of the Magirus truck.
Unlocked and open for all experts.
I assume that the truck was built in 1965 or later. Therefore it can be an M 126 D 11 A or a M 135 D 12 A.

No, it is not one of those.
V6 engine?
Yes, I think so
My sources do not know of any 4x4 with a single tyre rear-axle.
So it might be a special version for THW (civil disaster control) or firebrigades. For example M 156 D 15 A?
It is a special version, but not for THW or fire brigades. Not a M156 D 15 A either.
M 178 D 15 A?
I'm not sure the rear axle is single tire... Is it a M 125 D 10 A?
Twice no
Perhaps it is still a V8, M 230 D 19
No
up again
M 150 D 14 AK
No
Any version of M xxx D xx A-L?
M xxx D x A-L
M 120 D 9 A-L
No
M 126 D 9 A-L
No
M 110 D 7 A-L
Almost, only one digit wrong: M 11_ D 7 A-L
Locked for you.
M 115 D 7 A-L
No
M 112 D 7 A-L
What took you so long? ;D
This truck was built for the Egyptian forces and used by the Porsche racing department. It is currently for sale.
Unfortunately, I was looking for white Magirus trucks from Prakla-Seismos instead of researching the history of the motorisation of the Egyptian Army. :huh:
In terms of difficulty, a typical Wendax puzzle :thumbsup:
I prefer puzzles where I learnt something new myself when finding the puzzle picture. That's why they are difficult sometimes. ;)
