Berlin today, still with relics from a horrible past. Those bullet holes reminds us at the black episodes from modern history.
Cynically they aren't gone at many places all over the world, we are getting more and more of them, day by day...
However I rather prefer to look at other things from the past. E.G. classical cars. During earlier visits Berlin used to offer lots of interesting old cars. This week the harvest was rather poor. Is it a result of environmental measures from the European administration? I'm curious to know this...
Seen at the walls of a former prison, built in the typical bright red bricks from around 1900. The buildings are now housing the Justizvollzugsanstalt Plötzensee.

Beautiful black Mercedes cabrio, seen in a classic car enthusiasts garage behind Automuseum Mellle.
The 280 SL was the last and strongest version of the W113-Series, which was introduced in March 1963 with the 230 SL.
The 250SL followed in Dec. 1966.
The W113 could turn quickly into a roadster: it had a removable coupé roof, the so called Pagode-roof.
The W113 project was a creation of Friedrich Geiger in cooperation with Karl Wilbert and Bela Barenyi. Development started already in Oct. 1958.
2778cc 6 cylinder engine.
1480 kg.
Production W113 280 SL: 12/1967-4/1971.
Number seen: 1.

This rare car is most probably a mid 1930s Horch Cabriolet-Limousine. It was under reconstruction in a classic car enthusiasts garage behind Automuseum Melle.
I have no further info about this car.
In 1932 Horch merged with Audi, DKW and Wander into Auto Union.
8 cylinder engine.
Number seen: 1.
