First off, this very pretty red thing I saw this morning on my drive to work!

And, the cooler thing:

This very cool beast I saw on my way home yesterday - a Steyr overlanding-modded truck! Couldn’t make out what country it was from (EurOppos, maybe some help? The plates had no symbols or crests and were simple black lettering on a white background).

It’s not all that uncommon (still rare, but not RARE rare!) to see Euro RVs / Overlanders here (especially from Germany) as this area of Nova Scotia was settled by a lot of Germans back in the 1750s.

Cool stuff! :D

Hmm the plates don’t look familiar to me. Could be an older plate from pre-EU plates. What was the formatting of the plates (for example 00-XX-XX) as I can’t tell from the picture.

My hunch is either southern Germany, Austria, Switzerland or Northern Italy, as those have always been main Steyr markets.

Hard to read on the cam screenshot I got (got a better one from my desktop PC) but it seems to be something like **-** **

Something like PO (the letter O) or P0 (zero) dash 55 space something something...?

Hmm, I’m lost. The spacing and format makes me think of Austria, but the lack of a shield after the first two letters means it isn’t.
