I need to buy me an Audi "metal banana"........................

Looks like this.

I love the looks of it and haven't had one in many years as they don't come up for sale very often.

Compare this to the lifeless design of modern mopeds/scooters.

They are actually called DKW but since they later became Audi is why I called it that.

Unfortunately this one slipped through my fingers.
