Albanian plates used to be fairly rare for me to see, they are probably impossible to spot in 2020. This one's one of my better spots to my trip to Italy in 2017. I was expecting Albanian plates due to the Albanian diaspore in Italy, and I was blessed with a spot just a couple of minutes after setting foot in Italy.

A very cool Russian plate from the Region of Krasnodar. Krasnodar is boardering with the Black Sea and (political) Georgia. Russian plates other than Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad always are a favorite spot of mine, and since Krasnodar is more than 2000kms away from Berlin, this automatically qualifies to be one of my best plates.

E Class 0-4-4T Met No.1 leads the District 150/District Pioneer Heritage Train into Chiswick Park. Sarah Siddons is on the rear. The route the train took over this weekend was over the District Line from Ealing Broadway to Kensington High Street. Very little if any of it was underground and the journey took barely 30 mins each way so I hope the passengers got their money's worth at £150 each!

Now in winter Finnish plates are really rare to see, which isn't all that surprising. Swedes and Danes however are frequent during the coldest months. Finnish plates are easily one of the most common rare plates for me.

The new E-Class is quite an awesome car. It looks very Mercedes-like and has the perfect amount of sexyness to stand between the C- and S-Class. Unfortunately, it's 2018 already and you all know new E-Classes. It was, however, quite interesting to spot one from Mogilev this early. I usually get to see newer foreign cars with a delay, except for some cars from Poland.

Wat a lovely spot from Ukraine. Sure, Ukrainian cars are nowhere close to rare here, neither are E-Classes...especially not E-Classes, but this one is quite a lovely spot whit its roof box. This spot also marks my first spot from Cherkasy, which is quite special to me.
Interestingly enough, there's a similiarly colored Ukrainian car in the background :p.

A Mercedes-Benz E-Class V213 photographed at a Mercedes dealership in Shenyang, Liaoning province, China.
For the 213 generation, Mercedes decided to produce in China the short and the stretch sedan.
For the stretch version, Mercedes did special effort : new rear seats and a third side window. More than just a longer rear door.
Stretch E-Class 213 has three gas engines : 2.0 184hp (200L) and 245hp (300L) and V6 3.0 272hp (320L). 4WD is available on 200L and 320L.
Sold for 436.800 to 629.800 RMB (about €58.000-83.600 or US $63.400-91.300).
Location: Berlin - 2039km from home.
Krasnodar is relatively far away and used to be a rare code. Until 2018 and 2019, where I got to spot quite a few of them. 2020 had none, obviously.

Although Dutch taxis are not all that common in Düsseldorf or Köln, it's always very nice to see one since I didn't get to see any during the last entire year in Berlin. It's not that unlikely that this vehicle was waiting for a customer and not being used as a private car this day.
Dedicate to all how miss my work :)

Coachwork by Pilato
For decades, Mercedes vehicles have been the preferred basis for hearses owing to their elegant design, their sound workmanship, and their longevity and reliability. The vehicle on display has a bodywork built by the Italian firm Pilato. The large windows and ornate appointments are typical features of Italian hearses.

Potsdabm is very popular with local diplomats, usually to show to family members or guests, since it's quite a nice and beautiful place just outside Berlin. You can regularly spot diplomats at the Schloss Sanssouci.

Runde Doppelendrohrblenden am Heck und eine neue Heckschürze mit sportlichem Diffusor-Look mit drei Längsfinnen lassen schon ahnen, welche Performance das gute Stück abliefert.
Round double tailpipe trims at the rear and a new rear apron with a sporty diffuser look with three longitudinal fins give an idea of the performance this good piece delivers.

This 300 CE AMG 3.4 was delivered new to AMG Japan in August 1991, who subsequently carried out the full AMG conversion to make the car what it is today. Under the bonnet, the venerable M104 inline six was over-bored to 3.4-litres and the crank upgraded to increase stroke, whilst bespoke AMG camshafts improved top-end performance, unlocking an extra 40 bhp and bringing total output to 270 bhp. The body was also adorned with the full ‘widebody’ kit, featuring flared wheel arches, three-piece deep-dish AMG split-rim wheels by OZ Racing, rear spoiler, and deep front air dam. The interior benefits from upgraded Recaro heated and electronically adjustable seats, factory-fitted ‘Tempomatic’ air conditioning, AMG steering wheel, gear knob, and AMG instrument cluster.
The car remained in its adopted home of Japan until 2016, until it was purchased by the current owner and imported to Switzerland. It is accompanied by a handful of Japanese service invoices, its original owner’s manuals, and Mercedes-Benz Fahrzeugdaten. Finished in the traditional colour scheme of Brilliant Silver over a black leather interior, this is the ultimate incarnation of the six-cylinder W124 C Class, presented in exceptional condition throughout.

thanks Kim...you are amazing!
This is my lego model of Metropolitan Railway Loco no. 1. It is an E-class - and the prototype of this engine is the only member of the class to be preserved.
My model is 7-studs wide, and uses BBB medium size wheels for the drivers. The main body is made in Dark Red bricks, and the yellow lines round the boiler are made from rubber pulleys/belts. Finally the motor bogie is mounted on a turntable at it's end, allowing the loco to negotiate curves and points.
The model has already been displayed at the LTM's Acton Depot, but I'm hoping I'll get the opportunity to take it to Bucks railway center, where the real one is!

Finally my first Norwegian diplomatic license plate. Diplomats can often be found at the Schloss Sanssouci, including foreign ones. This was, surprisingly, a Hungarian diplomat to Norway. The license plate is really cool with that color scheme.

"Behördenkennzeichen", losely "Authority plates" or "institutional plates"/"plate for institute" aren't a rare sight in Berlin, but this really low number is. Unfortunately, Berlin doesn't follow the typical order of issuing these plates, which means this plate might belong to any institute/authority e.g. in Berlin.
These plates still remain rather special as they've been discontinued since 2007, but are still issued due to a loophole in the Stadtstaaten ("City States") Bremen, Berlin and Hamburg. These plates were issued for members of authorities/institues of a Landkreis (district). Their only remains outside the Stadtstaaten are the diplomatic plates given to consulates.
A very late example of this generation of E-Class with the later model already on sale in saloon form. Powered by an Inline six cylinder diesel. Now on SORN.

Mercedes E-Class with Swiss Diplomatic plate at Chalon sur Saône.
It's the first time I see a diplomatic car at Chalon, in a middle of hard discount shops which is quite strange.

This Mercedes-Benz 200 was delivered new on 19th May 1981 by Mercedes-Benz Longchamp in Paris. Presented in outstandingly original condition, the car has enjoyed single-family ownership from new (uncle and nephew) and has covered a certified circa 54.500 km. The second Carte Grise is on file together with a photocopy of the first. The owners were wealthy landowners, who never drove the Mercedes in the rain and on longer trips often transported it by train. When not in use it was kept garaged, protected by a cover.
The colour combination is particularly appealing: Walnut Brown with Saffron Light Tan interior in MB Tex fabric. The original paintwork is beautifully preserved, as is the upholstery, which has been protected since delivery by made-to-measure zipped covers and has never seen the light of day. Factory fitted options include power steering, central locking, lockable glove compartment, folding front armrest, electrically heated rear window, halogen fog lamps, parcel nets, and rear courtesy light. The first owner had the right-side door mirror fitted by Mercedes-Benz, and the car also retains its original Blaupunkt Montreux radio, complete with instruction manual.

Accompanying the previously uploaded police car was this police car from MeckPom. I have no idea what they were doing to this day. Nothing that's usually part of their work, I suppose.
