    this car is a one off car built in the late 1960´s by German engineer Johannes P. Paulussen who came up with the idea of building his own sports car at the age of 17:

    www.beradino.com
    www.beradino.de

    He designed and built the car all by himself during his college years.
    When Paulussen turned 25 and finished college the car was ready to hit the roads.
    After many years of storage Mr Paulussen pulled this beauty out again in 2009 after retirement and began with a few updates and refinements on the car:

    The Paulussen beradino is actually three cars in one: a coupe with hatchback or notchback and a roadster:

    The build quality, fit and finish on this car is unpaired by any comparable private car project.
    An impressive car, an impressive design and an equally impressive story of the man behind this project.

    I love the design of the Paulussen beradino even more that of many 1960´s Ferraris.

    It´s so amazing what he achieved during his college years.
    He started with the design at the age of 17!

    It’s great, amazing, truly unbelievable! A living history, absolutely unique worldwide!
    A good Ferrari is mine, but I like the Paulussen beradino too, exceptionally indeed, because this car
    is a really unique example for perfect car styling, I take my hat off to this performance!
    Made after 1961, presented no more than months ago, in 2011 … incredible!
    Without any doubt: a DREAM CAR, standing in the forefront of any concours d’elegance, I’m sure!
    Pebble Beach is a few steps from me compared to Germany,
    to see this stunning car nearby as a >hands-on experience<, that’s MY dream …..

    The one piece hood that flares up in front of the windshield breaks the flow of the car, from the rear, that car is fantastic.

    The www.beradino.com website has undergone a redesign
    An English version will follow later on.


    How could the beradino possibly find its way to the Californian Concours?

    Due to some critics Mr Paulussen remounted the original mirrors:

    The beradino is an amazingly beautiful car. Actually three cars in one:
    hatchback, notchback and roadster all in one car.
