On June 3, 2017, the "Fantastic Plastic" plastic car meeting took place for the fifth time, welcoming buggies in all their diversity as guests of honor. With a journey of around 150 km to Bleienbach and Rain, the event was not static, with drivers also getting their money's worth. Around 30 brands were represented in 2017, and in addition to over 20 buggies, there was a BMW M1, two Bond Equipe, a TVR 350i, many Lotus, Marcos and Alpine as well as sports cars from Wiesmann, Rochdale and Alfa Romeo to see and hear. This photo report gives an impression of the one-day event and shows most of the vehicles both stationary and in motion.
