How did I find "Moggi" ?
Finally searching thru the adds on lorries in another newspaper I stop at the add telling about 6quot;Moggi6quot;. Suddenly I remembered my times at BAYER AG in Leverkusen where I most of the time drove a U1550 but sometimes for spraying fields two good old boys U406 got used aswell. |
So I bought a Unimog. Before really using it for the trip to southern France and back home 6 weeks later lots of things needed repair. The whole brake system was kind of rotten. The ignition nearly did not work. Lots of places did not see greece for quite a while and all kinds of fluids needed to be exchanged. Done that the radio box was emptied to get room to fit our KTMs in. Prepared like that "Moggi" is a really reliable vehicle ever since. Due to a lack of time and no interest of others to buy "Moggi" I gave it to a club helping people in Eastern Europe. They will bring "Moggi" to a home for children who lived in the streets of Moscow before. It will be used there to insure that they have a vehicle to go to the next bigger city during winter time.
