Flesh and blood people are often a 'living book' and are eager to tell their life stories. Our hobby life is of course about everything that is classic, be it cars or motorcycles. Mark has several classic classic cars that serve as therapy. One is the NSU Prinz 4L, a family heirloom.

The therapy for Mark comes in the form of tinkering and restoration. While his farm is also a parking place for other classic enthusiasts from his area. This is important for Mark, because in this way he can forget his intensive occupation with the Naval Aviation Service from time to time and thus relax.
The NSU Prinz 4L is a family heirloom. The owner is the brother of Mark's father, who, due to the advanced age and medical limitations, has decided to hand the car over to Mark with the assignment to find a new enthusiast for it. One that can give the car the necessary love. Tinkering is not necessary with this Prinz. The car meets all the requirements of MOT. Due to its age (almost 50) you can see a bit of the 'life' of the car. On the other hand, it is a real Dutch NSU with a 598 cc engine and an output of 35 HP.
This NSU Prinz 4L is another good example of an affordable classic with easy maintenance that can be used as a hobby vehicle for old-timer / classic rides. We are convinced that the majority of the Dutch have a positive image of classic cars and enjoy taking a look at the summer rides of the proud owners. And in fact, the recognition of various classic car types is still maximum and this NSU Prinz 4 is a good example of this.
