Spider Spotting

Post by rdv »

Hi at all,
After discovering the first spiders in Egypt and Curacao (countries no. 80 + 81), I would like to start a call:

Wherever you leave this year for holidays, keep your eyes open for a 'classic' Fiat 124 Spider! It is best to take some pictures of the vehicle (as a whole, from the license plate and preferably from the VIN plaque behind the windshield on the driver's side, if available), so that I can add the car to the worldwide Spider registry!

b.t.w.: Unfortunately, the new European Data Protection Basic Regulation (DSGVO) also has an effect on the spider registry, so that we have received a first reminder and therefore had to take the register offline. Offline, however, I am still searching and collecting car data! Current status are 13,098 Fiat 124 Spider!

I am happy about any help and input from you! And so let's have a nice holiday and have fun with spider spotting!

It's not advisable to take a picture of the VIN and License Tag and entering in the registry without the owner's permission.

Hi
the license tag is just for internal identification and will not be published anymore in complete form.

Ciao,
