Purchasing classics there

Approvals without license plate? That requires some explanation. Ex army vehicles are usually sold through local services without license plates. The RDW is fortunately a customer-friendly organization with mountains of experience.

We stopped by instead of emailing us. After all, personal contact is always more pleasant.

It was about a Hercules K125 BW, a former Ordans bicycle from the Bundeswehr. That thing had appeared under a canopy after fifteen years of napping. The asking price was such that we dared to take the risk. The 'seller' supplied a purchase receipt. A half, slightly torn off A4 line of line paper.

At the RDW, the bill was viewed with a smile and we were advised to prepare the former soldier, make a documentation folder, and ensure that the year of construction was clear. With construction years up to 1975, the inspection is considerably clearer than with model years thereafter.

After that, the inspection would be a formality because the intrinsic value of that brave little two-stroke joint was not so high that an investigation into its history had to be done.

In the meantime, the Hercules has been integrated smoothly.

Knowing more? A conversation on the spot is pleasant and enlightening. But on the website of the RDW you will also find all information plus the possibility to ask questions.
