Nothing much to report

All has been pretty quiet. Had the Wartburg out a few more times and it continues to perform brilliantly.
My favourite Wartburg of all time would be the 311, particularly in one of the two tone colour schemes, which are such a welcome contrast to the bland and mundane colours of the seventies and eighties Wartburgs.
IFA F9 1956 Model.   Don't these have lovely lines?
I particularly like this black and grey combo. These cars had plenty of chrome, leather type seats and wooden  door cappings on the inside under the windows. After the Eisenach factory stopped producing Bmw's and Emw's, they made the IFA F9 for 3 years. Production of the Wartburg 311 began in 1956.
