Belgium Cobra site?

Until the winter of 2017/18, there was a site with a bazillion cobra pictures, listed by CSX number. cobracars.be in the spring/summer of 2018, the folders disappeared and the site has become kind of an automotive news site.

Does anyone know the history behind the site and why it was converted/taken down?

Thanks

Paul

I remember that site. I always thought it was kind of thrown together by a high school kid obsessed with the cars. It was around a long time, so it's been archived many times by the Wayback Machine. For instance, here:

Maybe not the prettiest format, but it had a lot of pictures and a great resource. Shame that it is gone. When you use the WayBack Machine to look at it, 50% of the pictures are gone.

Any ideas why it was taken down? I heard rumored some legal stuff but that may have been just a rumor
