I'd be interested to know what that is. Assuming that "40" plate on the back is Maximum Kms/hour, it's likely to be 50 (49)cc two stroke.
Hopefully, I'll see it around again without the cover, and will take more pics. The guy who rides it appears to be a wizened, weather beaten, little nut brown local about 100 years old... 🤣

Reminds me of these things which you see a lot of in the backwaters of Spain and Portugal, usually full of produce on the way to market.

Spotted the little pick-up trike again today minus its cover, so took a few pics for @WRENCH as I know he wanted to see it in more detail. Hopefully, it might be possible to ID it now... perhaps the name on the tank might give a clue.

Purely coincidental, I saw another earlier in the morning but I didn't have my phone.
There are more Highland Green 390 Mustangs registered than Ford ever made. I saw what was purported to be one of the original movie cars in the Petersen Museum in LA but again more people saying they have an original than was actually used in the movie.

Where there's money there are fakes.
😂 😂

One from the other weekend, a nice C7, a bit different from the old school Vettes I owned back in the day.

Popped along to a local meeting

This was the star of the show and even though I've been around VW's for as long as I can remember not everyone's thing but I've never actually seen one of these or for that matter a MK2 as clean and original as this.

There were other brands available

😂 😂

Yes, they do all seem to be bad at parking properly.

Just for a bit of fun I parked mine in an electric charging bay and it seemed to set off a bit of a trend, after about an half an hour all the electric car bays were filled by boy racers

You just need a cable with a fake plug for the charger and on the other end a couple of red and black cables that you just tuck under the bonnet, explaining to anybody that complains that you are "charging the battery". Using this technique you can usually park closer to the doors at supermarkets, sports centres and motorway services.
 
Spotted here in Menorca... a lovely old Renault 4 (the one with gear shift sticking out of the dashboard)...

A beautifully restored Mini Moke...

... and next to it an MX-5 Mk2
