Quite many. When I've been on familiy-vacations in Holland as a child in the 70ies, I've never seen one. I would have remembered that, as a car-fanatic small boy. -- Last edit: 2009-07-30 13:38:16
DynaMike ◊ 2009-07-30 14:55	Maybe they were already too much rusted or we felt ashamed and kept them hidden in the garage... I found some percentages of Trabants sold in Holland (compared to the total of sold cars here): 1961 : 0.15 % 1962 : 0.27 % 1963 : 0.76 % 1964 : 1.65 % So in 1964 there were more Trabants sold than DKW/Auto-Union, Morris, Chevrolet, Standard-Triumph, Volvo (only 0.63 %!), Škoda, Neckar, Wartburg-EMW; but less than NSU, Mercedes-Benz (1.84 %!), Austin, Peugeot, BMW, Vauxhall, Citroën (4.65 %), Simca, Ford (UK), DAF, Renault, Fiat, Ford (D), Opel or Volkswagen (15.39 %). I guess that some 250.000 cars were sold in 1964. Somewhere I must have more numbers, more recent and more exact. But I've no idea inwhich of the thousends of magazines I have to look for them
