I rather liked the original A2 but Wiki suggests that only 176k were produced in its lifetime. About 1/6th of the number of Mercs.

I saw one on the road a few weeks back - quite unexpected these days.

The Daffodil was one of the last models with the original flat twin engine. The one you drove was probably one of the later models with a four-cylinder Renault engine.

Yes, probably that. It certainly had more 'go' than the one you experienced and the changeless transmission (or constantly changing transmission!) certainly made it quite lively.

The variomatic transmission was also used by Fiat in one of the Uno models - I had one as a loan car while the engine on my Alfa 145 was being replaced. As mentioned by Dave Brand above, pulling out from a junction had to be planned well in advance while the only effect the accelerator had was to increase the noise level.

Now that’s a quote and a half!

Not sure if the DAF fulfills the brief of being ‘too clever for its own good’, but it’s got a lot of posts so let’s keep going....

I’d forgotten that the original Daffodil / 600 was a flat twin, but it’s all coming back to me now! Sweet.... Think the VDT was single belt as well? The transmission is mentioned elsewhere as being the first CVT, not sure how accurate that is, but must have been the first ‘mass produced’ installation. Maybe Clyno was first use. I’ve hated with anything ever driven that was fitted with a CVT, but I believe that some cars now use electronics to mimic gear changes (stepped?) so don’t just rev and not actually achieve anything! One of the mags tested the new Renault Koleos (Nissan X-Trail) SUV recently and really slagged off the CVT. Odd choice to fit.....

Some of the small Volvos (340 etc) also used the VDT, but think probably made in the DAF factory or based on a DAF anyway. So quite a long production run, and maybe therefore a success? I hope Hubert van Doorne received royalties, not sure if VDT was his company or was owned by DAF by then!

Oh, and apparently the first DAF’s fitted with Variomatic could go as fast backwards as forwards, not that that was very quick.

Which is why they (used to) have daces for cars driven backwards in Holland!

I had one of the Variomatic Fiesta,s for a about year on independant test , [ because I was doing very high mileages at the time ].

It had a 1400cc Zetec engine . Under a standing start type condition , it would go to about 3500 or 4000 revs , [ which was probably peak torque ], & then continuous acceleration up to 70 or 80 MPH .
It did surprise a lot of other cars , & would take something with a lot more go to beat it from a standing start .

After about a year , [ and 100,000 miles ] , I gave it back to R & D at Boreham where they said the model was not going to be put into production .
I believe there were only 2 or 3 of them actually built .

I think you are right .
It was 20 years ago & I can,t remember all of the details .
I did go to Boreham quite a few times for ongoing services , progress reports etc during the time I had their vehicles , and I think that they said that model was not going to be carried on with any further .

I think that this was standard practice. If a development car was kept, the manufacturer would have to pay VAT to the value of what the car had cost to produce. On a one-off hand built prototype this would be quite a high cost, and 20% of this would be a significant sum, but from a history point of view, it's a shame that these vehicles cannot be saved.

Off topic, but.... Yes, they were doing it before the days of VAT as well! And of course there is the famous Ferrari story of Enzo having all the type 156 F1 cars broken up and their remains incorporated in the groundworks of a new building. Hence only ones about now are replicas......

I do enjoy the occasional story of a prototype somehow ‘escaping’ and becoming of historical interest, though! The latest, which I think is up for auction very soon, is the 4WD Ferguson Formula Scimitar GTE......

Speaking of Italy, some say that the Alfa Romeo Alfasud was the best car ever designed, and the worst ever built.

It was launched two years before the VW Golf Mk1. It had a Giugiaro bodywork, boxer engine, four-wheel disc brakes, and a very sophisticated suspension.

However, the Alfasud was built with Russian steel, and cars rested outdoors before entering the painting shop. Also workers had more strikes than working hours.

Jan De Rooy and , from memory , his brother too, raced Dafs (not Daff) in rallycross in the early 70s, and I saw them race at Croft .

Alfasuds - hmm- lazy classic car journalists have perpetuated the story that every single Alfasud went rusty overnight . It ain't so- I had two and neither rusted , even the one which was 5 years old when I sold it.My first , an early 1350Ti was sublime and trouble free ; the second , also a 1350Ti but with twin Dell' Ortos was ruined by overgearing and shoddy build quality ( door flying open , wipers colliding, window falling down door and staying there, electrical gremlins etc )

But the first was ,with a 2CV and Sevens, the most fun to drive car I have owned . I ended up with a Mk 1 Golf GTi - now 'iconic ' of course, but in reality worse in every way but go compared to the Sud . The Alfa's steering , brakes , handling , grip and ride were almost laughably better than the much lauded GTi.

Think steel was a problem for many manufacturers in those days, but a lot of them didn’t help matters by poor preparation and poor rust proofing! Surely the low point was the Lancia Beta, with the cars being bought back from customers due to rust? But we’re getting off topic again, certainly the Alfasud doesn’t meet the thread criteria in my book. Far too successful...

So how about the 1976 ‘wedge’ William Towns designed Lagonda? http://astonmartins.com/car/am-lagon...v540-and-v580/ It severely divided opinion when announced, and despite staying in production for about 10 years, sold poorly to start with. Interestingly, it is suggested that sales of the model in the oil-rich Middle East during the early 80s saved Aston Martin....

Conventional underneath, main problem seems to be that the LED digital instruments on the early cars were flukey. They were later replaced by a ‘cathode ray’ display. Rust of course also affected cars that were actually used! Values hit rock bottom until recently when collectors realised that it was about the only AM where prices hadn't gone through the roof! The shape still divides opinion however, and maybe the concept Lagonda shown at Geneva recently will do the same..... http://autoweek.com/article/geneva-m...ectrify-luxury

Also the 3 cylinder 2 stroke Fiesta ! I had one of the engines kicking about for a few years. I brought it off of a bloke that was doing tests for Ford on a dyno and I eventually flogged it to a museum in Wales. I believe that the Haynes museum has a complete car as well.
The engine was very compact and built by the Orbital outfit in Australia but I think it was dropped by Ford because of the emissions limits that were coming into place at the time.

The Alfasud was a great car. My first wife had one (bought secondhand) back in the 80s, just an ordinary 1200cc version but the performance was pokey for the engine size and the handling and brakes sublime for a standard road car. I loved to drive it when allowed. And the body stayed quite sound during her ownership.

Oh I don't know. It had quite a lot of competition for such a title back then.

The one-off Shooting Brake creation is rather interesting.

However the various "electronics" advances were almost certainly ahead of their time and too clever for the car's reputation.

For something that overlapped in terms of period availability how about the Lamborghini LM002?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghini_LM002

That clearly looks ridiculous even taking into account its military usage intent.

Then again had it not looked rather off the wall in some way it would not have been a proper Lamborghini.

Difficult to say if it was ahead of its time but the Hummer for non-military used came a little later iirc and the idea of high performance SUVs, though perhaps less practical as workhorses than used to be the case for Range Rovers, up market Jeeps and the Japanese 4x4 designs, have become quite popular of late. So maybe it was ahead of its time. Difficult to categorize it as "Too clever for its own good" I suppose - although it did fail to make it as a military vehicle as per original intent.

Some of these went to the Police on a long term independent testing basis as a "Panda "/general runabout .
I believe Essex & Suffolk , [both not far from R&D at Boreham ] , had them .
Don,t know many details , but as you say , with a direct oil injection lubrication , they probably would not meet ongoing emissions standards .

I think all Lamborghinis of that period looked cra... er, awkward. They looked like the worst sort of kit car you could imagine with 'added on' wheel arch extensions, lips under the nose, rear wings that looked like they'd been perched somewhere because they couldn't decide where else to put it, etc. I can't understand how the company could have designed and sold such monstrosities nor how anybody would have paid a fortune to actually own one.

Re the DAF.....an aunt, whose husband ran a Jag dealership, was indulged by uncle with cars which included MGBs, Lancia Fulvia, Dolomite Sprint and a pair of Fiat 124s the last of which she had a head-on collision in which rather knocked her confidence. Having heard a lot about the safety of Volvos she replaced the 124 with one without trying it first, but this was a Variomatic by this time badged as Volvo. Didn't keep that for long
