This little belter had two engines, one front and one back, four wheel drive doodle to fix could strip and rebuild the entire thing in a couple of days and heaps of fun to boot

Butchd said:Mind you Citroen weren't the only people at it since I recall a twin engined mini, though it must have been rubbish off road since it lacked the 2CV's independant suspension.
havingagiraffe said:the 2CV has lots of suspension travel and sits high off the ground so it is fantastic off road, but you can scrape the door handles if you take a roundabout at more than walking pace on road...
Butchd said:<grins> Well pointed out. I did actually mean both lack of ground clearance and lack of suspension travel but the brain obviously wasn't engaged. I seem to recall a mini I had with wide wheels and group 5 arches. Couldn't have been an inch of travel between tyre and mudguard but the bugger never rubbed once.
