Michelotti Strandwagen (Kini) - Royal beach car based on a DAF 44
The royal beach car that Michelotti designed on the basis of a DAF 44 to serve as a beach run-about at Porte Ercole, the Italian summer residence of the Dutch Royal Family.


When Prince Willem-Alexander (the current king of Holland) was born, the former Dutch auto manufacturer DAF presented the royal family with a bespoke creation, the Michelotti-designed Kini (Bavarian for King). The quirky styling isn’t to everyone’s tastes but, as a beach car, you couldn’t go far wrong.


«Пляжные машины» были созданы итальянским дизайнером Микелотти в середине 60-х годов на базе серийных моделей. На белом экземпляре ездила Жаклин Кеннеди в Монте-Карло, на синем — правители Нидерландов во время отдыха в Италии. Автомобили назывались DAFkini, то есть «бикини марки DAF».

I maintain the world's Registry for Fiat Jolly automobiles, including the 850cc "Shellette" by Michelotti.

I catalog all of them to aid owners and their inquiries. I'll add this variant to my collection.

If you know where this DAF is now, please contact me.
Thanks,
Steven.

Hi Steven,
This particular one, previously owned by the dutch royal family (licence plate AA-98) is now in the DAF museum in Eindhoven The Netherlands

Im quite sure the DAF kini is a one of a kind, unlike the FIAT based shellette wich had a limited production of less then 100.
