This one would be a lot better than the VW Schwimmwagen typ 166 '42 we have.
👍
 
An interesting oddity, but not a good car and very poor as a boat - most have long since rusted away. If spaces are limited I would rather have cars that provide a good driving experience and have natural competitors so that they can be raced.

I suppose you could have this car and create an interesting challenge for it a bit like the lunar exploration, but based on crossing rivers.

The Aquada would beat them all very easily :sly:
 
Styling wise, it looks like a bel air drove into the back of a triumph herald :lol:

I think GT should add the Loch Ness lake as a track for this car ;)
