Guest ID2 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 In their attempts to bring affordable motoring to the masses, some of the "bubble cars" compromised heavily on style. Perhaps the most stylish of this ugly genre was the BMW Isetta. The BMW Isetta 250 The BMW Isetta 300 But some were just plain ugly. The Messerschmitt Kabinenroller KR 200 And winner of the ugly stakes IMAO - The Peel Trident! 49cc of sheer terror! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konstanov Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Strewth!!! :blink: I know what you're saying. But it's such an unimaginative car. Now the 1970 Holden Monaro GTS. This car has shape and style. What a blatant rip off of the American pony car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splicer707 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 What a blatant rip off of the American pony car. I agree. But then Holden is owned by GM. So I guess that's where Holden got there ideas from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late entry: 1973 KV Convertible, (France) Technically interesting but aesthetically less so, obviously a product of an engineer. KV built its own motors which drove the rear wheels by means of rubber rollers pressing on the tires! This is an example of an early KV (as opposed to a KVS), featuring small indicator lights and a full convertible top. Manufacturer: Societe Anonyme de KV, Chassieu, France Years Built: 1970- 1984 No. Produced: 2,000 Model: Mini 1 Body: Steel Chassis: Steel Frame Motor: KV 2-stroke No. Cylinders: 1 Displacement: 125cc Suspension Front: Coil - Rear: Coil Length: 2,100 mm;?Width: 1,120 mm Gearbox: Variable Speed Transmission Steering: Rack & Pinion Starter: Dynastart Brakes: Cable Weight: 180kg Electrics: 12 v 4 Wheels: 4.00 x 8" Interior: Bench Ignition: Coil Top Speed: 55 kph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reacon Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm wondering whether Noddy would suddenly appear out of the car :) Ugh, don't say that. My lil' sister used to watch that all the time. It annoyed the hell both me and my mom. That KV is.....a metal death box? It should've been discontinued way before 2000. That's 2k people that have to suffer all because of an engineer's stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
