The holidays are a time for the best of humanity to show itself, to rise to the surface and do good unto others. This to show it some compassion. This little old friend-shaped car needs a warm garage for the new year, and you’re just the person to give it one. Go rescue this Fuldamobil Type S, and never let it spend a night out in the cold again.

Based on the same architecture as its predecessor Type N “Silver Flea,” the Type S received a much more aerodynamic rounded body shape, turning it from a slab-sided can of ham into a three-wheeled Porsche 356-esque micro machine. This one was built under contract at the NWF factory, where around 1,000 cars per month were cranked out as demand outpaced what Fuldamobil could build in its own factory. The NWF cars, like this one, featured a 200cc ILO-Motorenwerke aircooled single-cylinder engine making around 9.5 horsepower.

This little guy is a smidge rough around the edges, but it appears to have most of its components intact, and could likely be driven with just a bit of tinkering. These cars are so incredibly simple, in that they operate a bit like large scooters. With a bit of elbow grease, I’m almost sure it’ll crank over and start up. You want to throw caution to the wind and give it a shot yourself.

Okay, definitely throw a new cover on that seat before you drive it, though. Or at least a moving blanket or something. Ew.

This Fulda is located in the Czech Republic (just 10 miles from the German border), and of bringing home a new friend. As the temperatures start approaching freezing, you’ll really want to hurry. We can’t let this little guy freeze and starve just sitting out in the Czech countryside. Bring him home. We all love a weird little guy, don’t we folks?

I Proved The BMW X6 M Is Actually Useful
I Proved The BMW X6 M Is Actually Useful
Like many people, I could never quite understand the BMW X6. And I can understand the even less. Help me out, friend: do you get why BMW makes an SUV that’s essentially the X5, but with a steep, sloping roof purely for dubious aesthetics, then has the gall to add...

At $9,900, Could This 2008 BMW 550i Prove To Be Pretty Nifty?
When someone says five-point-oh you probably go straight to visions of Mustangs and white rappers. Well, today’s BMW is almost a five-litre and has a stick to boot. Lets decide if its price has you saying five-point-oh yesss. Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be. The appropriation of that bon...

At $3,977, Could This 1992 Chevy Lumina Z34 Be The Light Of Your Life?
At $3,977, Could This 1992 Chevy Lumina Z34 Be The Light Of Your Life?
You’ll be forgiven if you never knew today’s Lumina Z34 even existed. Given its specs and price, you might just suddenly wish that you had. Is there anything worse than being a teen? Too young to fully enjoy all the trappings and responsibilities of adulthood, but old enough that those...
