I can be wrong, but this was proably sold in europe as Space Wagon. Not sure about the LRV version though.
And I found out that there was japan only turbocharged limited edition called Resort Runner GT.

On IMCDB they have it as 1953 Fiat 1100 Boat-Car www.imcdb.org/vehicle_494681-Fiat-1100-Boat-Car-103-1953.html I did not find any italian naming for it
EDIT: you just edited it as Coriasco Fiat, so I guess that Boat-Car can be removed, since we differed it from ordinary Fiat 1100.

Former aircraft brand, but it did a few tries with flyable cars on same principle like Ford Pinto AVE Mizar. Incredibly hard to find specs about it, but with some googling and trying to find few thing about Crosley engine used in that car in encyclopedia you can fill a few columns.

With lot of luck you can buy it as a beater used by Police Czech Republic. Few of them were bought in 2004 and used in colors of police, that means white with green stripe on side. It looked bad on Felicias, but there it was a disaster. They were meant to be highway interceptors, but with this color scheme and no speed radar included this car was pretty much useless. In 2012 was on sale one former interceptor with blown engine, devastated interior and with poorly removed police scheme.

Yes, Galpin Ford dealership offered that. One car was as a commercial standing in the showroom and second one was flyable, as seen in this promo video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzv4q5EEy1k

That moment when you realise that you added Rinspeed car without including Rinspeed (of course he aproved it, but...).
And yes, it is a 1st gen Golf with gullwing doors, 6 lights and turbo.

You are clever that you found it out! It sounds simple when you tell it, but it must be hard to find it.

Rinspeed a écrit
YES! Thank you soooo much!
Where was the problem?

I can see the edit link, I can confirm the changes, but when I do it, the MySQL error appears, so nothing really changes. I can download bandicam and poast a video if you want to.
There: youtu.be/jepFULyRlJU

And there comes the funny part. I can not edit it either when it is accepted or not. No difference between it at all.
There is no difference either if I will edit it from engine page or car page.

I will ask my IT friend to try to resolve my problem with editing engine, because I am really annoyed with it.

No. He said that only main admin can do it, but Rinspeed told me that it is problem on my side. Now I am really confused.

This car reminds me some electric 1990s thing, could anyone discover what it is? Its top speed is like 90km/h, it was made in 1996 (i dunno if it is end or start of production) and its model name should be 2000, if I recall correctly. It looks way much faster than it is.

Well USA is (at least in the eyes of eastern coutries) area with tougher requiments. In Russia, you need to have tough car (as I say, every soviet car is more or less suitable for off-roading) with no eletrical gadgets, So what you would update, when you have cheap car that can ride on 76 octane petrol with lot of spare parts and easy to repair... That is why are eastern new car markets filled with slightly or not at all updated vehicles that run production more than 15 years.

But europeans see USA as a country that proably needs modern cars with newest and coolest gadgets. That is proably why Desscythe17 was curious about the fact that car this old is still slightly facelifted than replaced by new model. But yes, it is fact that USA is a country that was able to produce sport car with solid rear axle in 21st century, and not that much things objectively changed in US market.

Well that is a sad history
I used phrase "Isetta clone", because this car is bubble shaped and it is very small, and there were lot of cars based on that, such as Heinkel or Zundapp (it was bigger, but it kinda reseabled it).

I think that you uploaded wrong picture, because same one have Gutbrod Superior Kombi. I googled Auto-Kabine and it is a Isetta clone.

Okay

Looks like someone did it before me, but I will try to fix it when I see it in different page

What is the problem with "Š"? Should I edit it, since my keyboard knows this letter? I noticed that letter "Å" in some czech names too.

I added 781.115 engine, and it was deleted, because it is a prototype? It was supposed to be a cheaper car than normal Favorit (big price gap between top 120 and low end Favorit) and it was a planned succesor to Skoda 105. There are not much differences between this prototype (only thing that you will notice is narrow wheels), so I thought that I will not do it as a standalone car, and there are also low quality pics of it. Should I add it to engine to this Favorit page or as a standalone?

Škoda: Auta známá i neznámá (Skoda: cars known and unknown), and as a matter of fact, I have Škoda: Zapomenuté vozy 1960-1990 (Skoda: Forgotten cars 1960-1990) too.

I edited total production number, because I forgot to include 445 model in that number, they were two separate models, but more or less the same with excepton of engine. I will try to add Felicia and Octavia too, because I have very good book about vintage Skodas.

+1

Like that: Number one in CZ in 2008 is Skoda Felicia with registered 405 927 cars, and average age of 11.35 years; second is Fabia with blah blah blah... In eastern countries cars are much older, so if you want to imagine typical eastern road, Top 10 sold cars in that year is irrelevant. I saw the brand new Fabia once, although it is one of the best selling new car here, but streets are here flooded with rusted out Felicias. Top 10 table is pretty much suitable for this kind of entries.

Did you understood it now?

The pic is okay.
I have got an idea: We can have similar page as Top 10, but with most cars registered in the state in specific year. It could be cool to see which state have newest cars in average and which got oldest. I think that CZ have more or less 15 years old cars in average (and I dunno why is EU so bothered about this).

They have a little logo in the corner, but the website edmunds.com have awesome pictures - it is same style and same size. I am not done with the colors by the way, but i had physical education today and next 3 days I have school in factory with heavy machinery, so i will upload them at the weekend.

I have a question - I was gaining info from off-road themed encyclopedia and there is a sentence: They made jeep look-a-like 2x4 cars.
I think that it is difference between 4x2 and 2x4 drivetrain (you could find out what axle is powered, if I am not mistaken), can somebody tell me if I am right or not?

Back kinda looks like Honda CRX.
