30 YEARS of the Magic Van | 1983-2013

A date worth celebrating for any lady - our girl is turning 30!

An ever-present companion in our lives, whether for work or leisure, we always have our Mercedes Benz 508 with us!

Her history:

• The first registration dates from 20-07-1983 and belonged to the company "F.Süverkrüp Automobile GMBH & CO.KG", specialists in building motorhomes, based in Kiel, Germany. For 5 months she was modified to serve as a mobile laboratory for the University of Kiel;

• The second owner was the Christian Albrechts University, with the registration dated 13-12-1983. The geology research centre at this German university needed to analyse and collect samples of soil, water and minerals during its fieldwork, and she stayed there carrying out these duties for almost 18 years!

• The third registration appears on 21-03-2001 in the name of Timo Westphal, a former student and lecturer at the university, who was one of the users of the remarkable laboratory;

• The fourth and last registration appears on 15-12-2004, with export number plates for Portugal, in the name of "Magic Moments". After 6 months of hard but enjoyable restoration and conversion work, she was presented to the public for the first time on 10-05-2005!

Unique, without rival and with an unmistakable charm, that is the Magic Moments Lab-Mobile - the Magic Van!

Among green fields, she likes to choose the most beautiful landscapes!

Art, Nature & Charm

At the right moments, at the right time...

With lots of friends on the road, she often gets compliments and waves along the way!

Joy, energy and lots of photographs!
