Nothing very exceptional for me, on my last trip we had a bunch of Porsche (electric) prototypes on Santoña :

And a truck loaded with a mechanical horse (in the style of the machines de l'Île in Nantes ?) on W.B. Yeats :

Not seen myself, but: The most unusual might have been when the new metro trains for Norway's capital were delivered by truck, and taken on the Color Magic/Color Fantasy...

I saw the Liverpool FC coach (vehicle not Herr Klopp) on Pont Aven in late May 2019 heading out to the Champions League final taking place in Madrid a week later.

Unfortunately the team and coaching staff were not on board....
