Don't have one -- saw lots of them during my 2 years in Spain (1974-1976). An ugly creature IMO. The Spaniards called them "dos caballos" (2 horses) if I recall correctly -- back then! They were popular there, (as well as the Seat 600).

Best place to see a few is corner lots in Creekside and Bunglows near LSL, there are quite a few in each development

This would be only reason me to buy one, convert it. Get rid of the weak weird suspension. It I brought car version I would drive it any faster than my golf cart. IMO the only good idea was the 2 cylinder air cooled engines.

Deux Chevaux) 3 wheel conversions can’t post pictures but Google if interested.

<< It I brought car version I would drive it any faster than my golf cart. >>

Did you mean to say?: If I bought a car version, I would NOT drive it any faster than my golf cart.
