A real Seven S4 or some replica with Renault 4 taillights?

Almost certainly a kit car but I'm not sure what at the moment. My first thought was Dutton but nothing from them matches. I'm on the case but I guess it might be something Dutch as it seems to be a location there rather than the UK.

By the shape of the soft top it is a four seater.

This is also in Amsterdam, on a tour boat. (the guide was talking about the Herengracht)

There was a Dutch Lotus 7 type called Donkervoort - built in significant numbers I think.

Founded in 1978 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donkervoort - so this could be one of theirs.

Even though this is in Amsterdam (not on Herengracht, where cars are parked diagonally, but on one of the narrower radial canals) the car has a white license plate that looks quite German to me. Also I'd say that Donkervoorts were more serious than this.

In "Autokatalog 1983" I found this Beetle-based Bieber Speedster (the right one in the pic). In "Autokatalog 1981" it was not yet mentioned (I don't have the 1982 issue).

First Bieber on the site? A busload of adolescent girls will be arriving soon.... All with Beetle-based Bieber Fever.
