I'm trying to figure out (and failing because I'm just not that interested in Mercs or dayoos) which model that is on Wiki. Most of them seem to be based on Mercs anyway, I guess they just didn't try very hard to disguise the fact. The inside looks very, umm, waterprooof anyway :?

Blimey, I didn't even know they existed :shock: And it looks like Citroen tried to "unexist" them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citro%C3%ABn_GS#GS_Birotor That probably is a very rare car indeed.

I can't find any figures for fuel consumption (abysmal if it's like the Ro80 - engine as consumable too) but 106bhp, sub-10 second 0-60, top speed 175kmh (109mph). Not bad for the time really.

Btw the picture in the ad is a screenshot from youtube (if you're wondering why it's got a UK plate), there's quite a few vids of them on there.

I'd imagine the brakes would be up to whatever speed you could get it up to...

I should go out, find a lump of rust and stick it on ebay, label it up as a 1903 Rolls-Royce and see what I get for it :supafrisk:
