NSU Spider

[Tullamore]

I saw a NSU Spider at a local car show yesterday. These are very cool little cars. They have a small rear rotary engine which is also water cooled by a radiator all the way in the front of the car.

Tried to see how available they are and it seems the cars and all their parts a very rare.

Pretty little things aren't they?

I've only seen them in pictures... As I understand, this was the very first production car with a rotary engine, and was developed pretty much as a test bed for the rotary engine (although it was also sold in limited numbers as a production car)

Nice picture anyway, one of many neat cars I've never seen in my life but would love to... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
