For a point: who built it, where and what was the donor? (Sorry about the quality of the picture)

Was this picture taken a fraction of a second after the car struck a pedestrian in Edinburgh?

A FIAT 850-based Abarth?

A very far cry from the truth as this car isn't Italian at all

Did any of our experts ever seen this?

It´s a Ferrari BB with Miura front?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #8 on:** November 03, 2009, 02:57:48 PM »

No, not at all

Professionals, here's your chance to tell me: who created this sporty thing and what was its donor.

Djetset · « **Reply #10 on:** November 10, 2009, 07:58:25 AM »

Despite its exotic looks, was the donor a VW Beetle?

Clue: the donor and the builder are both German

Allemano · « **Reply #13 on:** November 27, 2009, 01:22:22 PM »

NSU based?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #14 on:** November 27, 2009, 02:39:36 PM »

Nope, something bigger

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #15 on:** November 29, 2009, 04:00:44 AM »

Are there Porsche bits under that swoopy bodywork?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #16 on:** November 29, 2009, 04:04:10 AM »

Nope, no Porsche bits that I am aware of

Allemano · « **Reply #17 on:** November 30, 2009, 10:48:21 AM »

not an air-cooled engine, then?

Allemano · « **Reply #19 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:03:00 AM »

you mean yes...?

Not air cooled — yes!
Air cooled — no!

pnegyesi · « **Reply #20 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:05:11 AM »

Sorry. It is not powered by an air-cooled engine.

Allemano · « **Reply #21 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:20:26 AM »

BMW?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #22 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:22:08 AM »

So, likely a front drive car's powertrain mounted behind the driver.

Is it Audi-powered?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #23 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:41:04 AM »

Neither BMW nor Audi, but one of their competitors

Allemano · « **Reply #24 on:** November 30, 2009, 11:41:53 AM »

Mercedes-Benz?
