>>Not so sure. I understood it was the Citroen Traction Avant (which means front-wheel drive). I guess the engine wasn't tranverse. Come to think of it, a car with such a long elegant bonnet (hood) - it would be daft to put the engine in sideways. Anyway, a most beautiful car (you always see them as German staff cars in WW II movies).

>I haven't been in Britain in over 20 years. So this is what you guys are building these days? I didn'know there was such a demand for WW II movies' staff cars. Doing good I see.

Ha Ha, very funny. I wish they did build cars looking like this. I love the retro look - the new Mini, new Beetle, 1960's look-alike Jaguar, etc. I've got a PT Cruiser myself and can't take my eyes off it, even after a year.
