Some cars are more than just sheet metal and technology. They are time capsules. On April 22, 2026, we had the pleasure of welcoming such a piece of history at our Beckingen site \u2013 and with it, two people who live and breathe a passion for true engineering. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Discovery in the Far North<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe story of this visit actually began at the end of 2025. Eric and Sylvie Forestier contacted us with an incredible story: they had unearthed a real treasure in a museum in Finland \u2013 a Hartge H35-24<\/strong>.
