Well, for those who don't know much about messerschmitts (I don;t blame you!), this is tha rare TG500 "Tiger".
No one has any precise number about hoiw many were made, but were sure there were less than 300 built!
It is the rarest and most special production car by FMR (Messerschmitt). Powered by a Sachs designed 500cc ir cooled engine, it can go 90MPH without tuning, and some people can tune them to go up to 105MPH !
However, the engines were originally poorly built - the engine was designed by Sachs, but they werent ghappy with the result, so they just kept the papers. Later, when FMR wanted an engine, they applied to Sachs. Sachs gave them the patterns, but wanted nothing else to do with it, they didnt even want there name on it! The castings were all sand cast at the FMR factory, thus being poor quality.
By the way Wendax, do you know where that photo was taken? Its a nice photo!
