MetalTrabant ◊ 2015-10-27 12:02	Yep, it's probably CGI, maybe that's why it's a bit different on the two pictures. There's also another Trabant 601 in the pilot. It just runs through the screen, so it's hard to get a good screenshot, but I've tried: (I've submitted this once, but somehow it got missed)
