messerschmitt owner Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 and an engine that is obviously an improvement on a Kubota single - the only vehicle that should ever use a single pot diesel is a Field Marshall!

Bobthebeard Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Tiny cars always seem a great idea in countries where the sun shines a lot. Miserable things in the UK though I would imagine. Great for chugging round a Greek island or Portugal possibly. Sun shining, 35 degrees, no traffic and all is well with the world. The M62/M6/M60 (other motorways are available) is a whole lot different. For that you need an Audi A6 and a deadline....I know what I would prefer. Sunshine and a bright yellow Sado!Or a Honda moped on a Greek island in 35 degree sunshine. A recipe for happiness.

MrDuke Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 and an engine that is obviously an improvement on a Kubota single - the only vehicle that should ever use a single pot diesel is a Field Marshall! I would love to see a Field Marshall engine installed in.... well, any car at all frankly. I'd pay good money to fire it up with a cartridge & fuse outside Waitrose. martc, Sigmund Fraud, DS20 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the judge Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Is that sado as in "sad bastard" or sado as in "masochist"? I know which one i suspect.... messerschmitt owner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheggers Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Presumably the engine was originally intended for a dumper truck or generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pay good money to fire it up with a cartridge & fuse outside Waitrose. Have just googled the starting of a Field Marshall tractor What a way to start an engine... Sometimes I take Smokey Joe (the Volvo) to Waitrose and other posh places; firing that up has a not dissimilar effect.
