s13a ◊ 2020-03-05 03:41	Here's a 1961 example with a Heinkel logo, but it's called Heinkel Trojan ?? https://www.themiamiautomuseum.com/1961-heinkel-trojan-200-c-353.htm
dsl ◊ 2020-03-05 14:46	So UK build by Trojan seems likely.

Baube ◊ 2022-07-18 22:28	it looks like if a Messerschmitt car and an Isetta had a kid....
dsl ◊ 2022-07-18 22:40	midnight wrote How fast did it go? and the mpg? Very fast. And it used leprechaun juice, so mpg didn't matter.

Baube ◊ 2022-07-18 22:50	4L/100 km is a little bit more than 60 mpg
