Wartburg 311 Bellevue prototype, 1958



half limo (with a glass roof!), half convertible :D


Hey look at those white wall tires :o)

Yep, this pic was shot at a car exhibition in Brusells when they introduced it back then. But unfortunately, it remained a prototype, but there were a handful (depending of the source between 4 and 7) of those cars existent and able to be driven. A few of them are in museums now, and sometimes even appear in oldtimer ralleys.

No. It vanished short after the GDR vanished. EIther BMW or Opel (GM) did buy the factories and build modern cars (or parts of them) there now.
