Hi,

On eBay Germany, I found this truck:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3145698313&category=9170

It's a big Model Team truck with stripes in German colors, and an instruction
labelled "Mobil 180".

Does anybody know anything about this set? Is it a local German promo model? Or
is it even Lego at all??

I'd say it's a clone, either Tyco or Choko, can't quite make out the logo from
here:
http://ebay0.ipixmedia.com/abc/M28/_EBAY_2cbfb3552eb36b2fafc764801ab0a48f/i-2.JPG

It's not an official LEGO model AFAIK and the instructions don't make sence if
it's a promotion item?
