Advertisement Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Hi Andreas.Pichler, Take a look here Name this car..... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Rona!d Posted August 15, 2012 Share #3902 Posted August 15, 2012 Andreas? You have such nice new riddle cars after that weekend we met, I assume. Come on! Name the right model and you are free! With "small" I was not saying physically MUCH smaller. Let´s think about the same model class, but not higher 4x4 chassis. It´s just one letter.

Andreas.Pichler Posted August 15, 2012 Share #3903 Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) I am feeling totally brained out: Volvo XC70...hopefully... Brps, Andreas PS: Next riddle will be painful...and it was a good experience to met you! A proof that this forum is reallly existing and not a digital second life!

a.j.z Posted August 15, 2012 Share #3904 Posted August 15, 2012 Somehow nobody is reading my hints The combination of V50 and C70 is V70 (there is no C50) As Andreas got closest please go ahead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted August 16, 2012 Share #3905 Posted August 16, 2012 #3891 and #3893 was the most I could do to help Andreas without saying "V70" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas.Pichler Posted August 16, 2012 Share #3906 Posted August 16, 2012 Oh boy...thanks that you have ended it before I would be running out of letters. So here is the next one, maker would be sufficient. Have fun and enjoy! Cheers, Andreas (No MG, no V, no X) Welcome, dear visitor!

Rona!d Posted August 17, 2012 Share #3912 Posted August 17, 2012 From the aerodynamics, this could go save slightly above 300 km/h Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas.Pichler Posted August 18, 2012 Share #3916 Posted August 18, 2012 Porsche! Your turn, Andreas. The crops are from the "Durlite" Porsche 550A, now owned by Albert Otten and presented at the Nürbrugring Oldtimer Gand Prix last weekend. Durlite was a friend of the first owner, Bob Webb, who unfortunaltely crashed this Porsche 550 in her maiden racing. Because of tight budget, Durlite offered Webb to repair the Porsche, using his skills as an aeroplane aerodynamicists and built up this very special body (as Ronald explains in this thread, good for 300+ kilometers per hour, and Stuart, who recognized the Kamm rear end). As you can see, this gem was involved in a crash at Nürburgring again, but the owner tries to do its best best taping her...

Rona!d Posted August 18, 2012 Share #3919 Posted August 18, 2012 To avoid somebody got me wrong, the aerodymamic of the Durlite Porsche was good for slightly above 300 km/h but engine only had about 140 hp or so, this car wasn´t a 300 km/h racer (220-240 km/h more realistic, depending on gearing).
