1974 Wartburg P760 prototype

It has.  There have been too many of my puzzles which spend 1 week in the Rookies then 1 minute in the Experts.
I don't have the time to spend searching for new puzzles when they are all solved so easily, so I'm trying to make them last a bit longer.
I like to see a few questions/wrong answers before they're solved..

I understand and agree. Unfortunately there are next to no rookies currently, so I'm afraid a handful of your puzzles will suffer the same fate before my status changes. ;)

You're right - if I move them!

Currently you have 30 puzzles in the rookie section. Considering that I'm 7 points short of becoming a pro, you may move no less than 23 puzzles in the expert section without fearing that they will be solved instantly. Isn't life sweet ?

my source calls it Wartburg 360 prototype from 1974, using a Skoda 4-stroke engine.

I can confirm this. The Wartburg 360 prototype used the drivetrain of the former P760 project by AWZ (Trabant), AWE (Wartburg) and Skoda. I'll change the title.
