Survivor from a time nobody cared

The Daf 600 was made in Holland from 1959 until 1963. It’s main claim to fame is that it had a 'variomatic’ (read: variable automatic belt-driven) transmission as standard fitment which was at the time unheard of for an European car. Bruno Costers from Belgium still owns one: “It’s the luxury version of the second generation (Daf 600 Luxe which was made on 8 March 1961, Chassis number: LP007020497 Engine number: * 021 111 *-600AF) with less than 30,000 kilometers on the odometer. This little Daf must be about my sixth one. In my younger days, when I had just passed my driver's license, I could only afford bargain basement cars and as the Daf was the kind of car that nobody wanted to be seen in, there were lots on offer, but no takers. Asking prices were very low, so I bought one and have never regretted it since.”
