Interesting cars seen on the road.

I didn't quite know where to post this but it was such a little lovely of a car. I parked near this in Norwich lunchtime today. It was absolutely mint. A nice old gentleman driving it too, he was obviously very proud of it. That is my car to the right of the picture.

It sounded quite fruity with the exhaust pipe coming out just behind the drivers door

I’m fairly confident the driver will have plenty of £10 and £20 notes to pay for the fuel…

That would be the answer, but 6.2Ltr in a huge thing like that, it still sound expensive to me

I thought I would look it up;

What Is the average gas mileage for a hummer? The average gas mileage of a Hummer depends on the model, year, engine type, terrain, and driving habits. The H1 gets around 10 mpg, the H2 a low 10-12 mpg while the H3 can deliver up to 14 mpg on average


Perfect punishment for such a stupid car...

And was that real time or Manufacturer’s published figures ?

Appears to be a Pavesi Tolotti - from the badge on the engine block.

Is the company really still in business?

4 wheel drive I guess, never seen wheels like that what a clever idea before the invention of tractor tyres

Run on railway track, or is it too wide?
