Techno-Classica 2013: Gallery of the cool, strange and unusual
Buried within the 20 halls of Techno-Classica Essen, you're guaranteed to run into all manner of interesting, curious and downright unusual cars, lorries or motorcycles. And this year was no exception.
The organisers of the show have confirmed that with more than 2000 cars on show, this was the biggest show yet - so if you were there, you were sure to run into something that left you puzzled. Here for your enjoyment are 15 such exhibits - some rare, some silly, and all fascinating.
Better known for the Goggomobil, Glas produced the pretty Frua-styled 1700 range between 1964 and '67. It wasn't an unbridled success, despite being rather good, and the company ended up being engulfed by a resurgent BMW. This 1700 Roadster is especially rare, and despite its understated looks, it's a real event to see one in the flesh.
