My answers are:

1. I have no idea (and the steering wheel centre appears to be 32 too!
2. Yes, Dutch registered. What sort of person would drive a car in their home country with the steering wheel on the wrong side???

I could just about cope with those two things - I'm more interested to see how well it will do in this expensive looking auction!

It is still very, very lovely indeed though!

AMAZING...SIMPLY AMAZING !!!
It never ceases to amaze me how much an Auction will drive up the price of a car. ;D
It it had been in the private sector it would probably have sold for 5,000.00 less.

Unheard of; A BMW Isetta selling in the USA for $ 48,000.00
A Messerschmidt for over $ 60,000.00
All thanks to Auction Houses.

Hell...these cars only cost less than $ 1,500.00 when they were new.
