I've come across this 1970's kit car prototype a few times this week whilst researching for another build. Has anyone any ideas what it might be/did it succeed please?

Neat! I guess that explains the "lizard" in the logo!

Thanks guys. Yes it seems to have been built around the Wankel Rotary engine built by Audi/Auto Union. It was to be available in 2 , 4 and 6 wheel drive! Pity it's not about now I would have bought/built one but not with a Wankel engine that was very thirsty!

Pity it's not about now I would have bought/built one but not with a Wankel engine that was very thirsty! It doesn't look like a dune buggy. It also looks like a single-seat laydown configuration & with no open windows, basically a stylish coffin.

Yes Paul, more of a two seat sports car, with a lift up roof, four or six wheel drive unnecessary!
