UUGGHH

Reminds me of that horrible little Fiat model they made sometime in the 80s for a short time..I forget what it's called.

I'd say that's just a modified 300, unsure what mark!

That is the 360 DuVeDeC. It stands for Dutch Vehicle Developement Centre. It's a dutch company from the city of Helmond. They've made all sorts of busses and other vehicles. Also a 360, i like it personally..... But they only do the design of the cars i guess, under the hood its just the same.

Don't have any more info than that which has already been posted I'm afraid! I only saw that picture recently too

i saw the pic too as there was a link from this website to that page on the dutch forums showing one of their 300 series meetings... lower down the page was this pic..... i guess you saw the same pic in the same forum as me!!
I like the bumpers at the front but Im undecided about the lights...

Hi Shimon340

I don't really think there was a prototype for a new 300 series. Could you show me that picture from your book? I like to know what it looks like. I think they like it on the dutch forum too

Yeah show us!
I gave you this Duvedec pic, now give us yours!!!

why is he breaking it?????? why doesnt he keep it?????

when was this car designed by the way?

Post by **bodejodel** » 23 Mar 2005 09:46 pm

He is breaking it because it is in a terrible condition.
He will rebuild it with all the special parts when he finds a very good 360 wich is worth to wear these honorable clothes.

Post by **RandomHero** » 23 Mar 2005 09:47 pm

He is saving all the good and special body-parts and wants to build them on a good glt. There is a discussion about this car on the dutch forum right now. The car looks nice, but is poorly in bad condition. Let's wait for a ressurection

The license starts with a P, which dates from 1986/1987. So it's desinged just before these dates.
