Strangest/most unique car u've come across
 

i'm sure there are plenty of strange aftermarket cars but we're talking stock here.....

Citroen Ds .. there were plenty of these in europe when i was growing up in the 80's..there were so different i would stare in amazement .. they were also extremely large by euro standards.. i've never seen a citroen in the usa

I saw this yesterday:

Citroen 2CV with a retractable roof :)

The slope of the hood reminds me of a capsized boat, and the squares off cabin's height looks out of proportion to the low slung, curvy body... but no, I haven't seen any in the states either.

But don't forget about the BMW Nazca c2

or of course the BMW GINA concept

or perhaps the best, the Chrysler all wheel drive, w4 heel steering backwoods concept!!!!!!

Or what I would do with a smart car...

Ok, now I will force myself to stop with the videos.

that chrylser on the red green show was a good one

The Citroen 2CV was my very first car. Mine was an old model with a 425cc engine with about 20hp. Max speed was about 85kmh (53mph). :rofl:
I could swap the gear box and engine within 1 hour of work.
The one in the picture in the previous post is one of the latest models that was made. The production stopped at the very beginning of the 90s. It had a 600cc that rendered about 30hp and could reach 70mph :wow: and went from 0-60 in .......one day:D

The coolest of all was the 2CV Charleston

I just saw this video and now have a new project on my hands!!!! I gotta build my own, smaller version of this!!!

Not really a car, but a neat vehicle none the less. I have worked with tank drills, built using remanufactured M32 undercarriages. We never used anything like a 427 for power however, and they didn't go anything like this one.

Yeah, what I would end up with would either be powered by a cannibalized 4 wheeler or an old VW 1600 from a bug. would hopefully end up close to this...

Citroen while not very popular in these parts were driven
by enough people to make the rest of the populace stand
up and take notice. The suspension was considered a marvel
of engineering.

High pressure hydraulics are the jewel in Citroën's crown. The hydropneumatic suspension system offers an unparalleled level of comfort and control although it must be admitted that it is not perfect. Non-Hydractive or Activa cars suffer from considerable body roll (the basic system is poor in roll stiffness), the ride tends to be harsh at low speeds, the hydraulic system is very good at transmitting road noise into the cabin, some people suffer from motion sickness in an hydropneumatic Citroën, there is a tendency for pitching if one is heavy footed when driving a Citroën and some drivers dislike the feeling of being divorced from the road surface. The system can be caught out by hump backed bridges - the body rises from the road surface as the apex of the bridge is reached, the height corrector then decides the car body is raised too high and reduces ride height as the vehicle descends the other side of the bridge - the body then crashes into the suspension bump stops.
On the plus side, one can drive far quicker on indifferent road surfaces than might be believed possible (this goes a long way to explaining the success of the marque in motorsport) and handling is almost unaffected by a change in ride height caused by a full load.

Additional benefits include an absence of diagonal pitching, the constant ride height ensures headlamp beams are always properly aligned, irrespective of load and aerodynamics remain unaffected by load thanks to a constant angle of attack.

More prosaic but nevertheless useful benefits include the ability to drive on terrain that is normally restricted to off-road vehicles, the ability to raise or lower the suspension to assist in loading or unloading the vehicle, to assist in changing a wheel, to facilitate towing and to make washing of the car easier.

As a kid, I used to love to see the back of the Citroen rise when and fall when put in gear.. :thumbup:
