This is a lovely old Porsche. I assumed it was a local treasure until I noticed the American license plate. It was an Illinois plate. Some car lover brought it over to drive on the wonderful European roads. What fun.

What a wonderful car!
Yes, today cars all look like eggs or boxes. I think that the car is such a background item these days. There aren't as many car nuts as in my youth. Young people here mostly regard a car as a transport appliance. Still a few who add parts to go faster but not as many as before.
There is a new expression in the car world here. It is just as much fun to go fast, slowly, as it is to have a supercar and go too fast. Small agile cars like this old Porsche, must be grand fun on a windy road.
