Hi,

here another graffiti, not on a vehicle, but in front of an Opel Blitz:
"Die Ruhe sei dem Menschen heilig." - "Rest is sacred to man"
"Nur Bekloppte haben´s eilig!" - "Only insane are in a hurry!"

Hi ilfil,

thank You very much for the last pic with the graffiti "Der rasende Großtanker" - "The speedy major tanker", an ironical description of this truck obviously used for the transport of fuel drums.
Here another graffiti (source: ebay):
"Die Mädel im Osten waren schön" - "The girls in the East were nice"
"Nun wollen wir die im Westen besehn ...!" - "Now we want to take a look at these in the West!"

"Ob Osten oder Westen," - "Whether West or East"
"bei Mutti ist´s am besten!" - "It´s best with mummy!"

Regards

Bert

"Our sweetheart" isn't exactly "a vehicle" in common meaning but it deserves to be here IMHO.
