Scwimmwagen

[Shant J.]

Does anyone know if it's a prize? I've already won the Kubelwagen, but I'm really after the Scwimmwagen.

Thanks in advance!

He wants to know if it can be won as a prize so he doesn't waste hundreds of thousands of credits on one.

And I'm not sure if it is.

Out of interest, can I ask why you want these cars? Is there something I'm missing here? I just dont understand why they are even included in the game...

You can PM me if you like

I got it yesterday as a prize car. I just can't remember the event. It must have been one of the early ones, as I'm currently level 12. It might have been the A-spec beginner event with the 60's and 70's european cars.

Are you sure you're not taking about the Kubelwagen?

Waste of a premium car IMO. It shouldn't even have been a standard one.

Come to think of it, no. The one I got was from 1944, and it looked like something out of WWII movies.

Personally, I want these cars cause I'm a huge fan of Volkswagens, both old and new. But I must say I really don't understand why PD put effort in including them, they are not exactly the kind of cars you race with...

Nevertheless, they are cool and I will enjoy them once i get them.

You could have fun one make races with them. I bet they are real momentum cars...

They should've included a track that has a river crossing in it to use Schwimmwagen's abilities. Non "schwimming" cars would have to take a longer route across a bridge.

There should have been a Top Gear challenge where you have to build your own Schwimmwagen.

Do you have one? Buy dirt tires for it an take it around Toscana. It's simply astonishing fun.

Eiger is fun too, but it can't make it up all the mountains. It still made for a hilarious one-make race when we all got stuck.

I suppose it was probably more fun for me since I have a Fanatec wheel with a clutch and shifter. It was great fun, because you had to ride the clutch in order to get over 50 mph down the hills. Also, the force-feedback is simply incredible.

Seriously, if you have a Fanatec or a G27, you must take the Kubel around the dirt tracks.

Ok thanks, I'll give it a shot tonight - now you've got me interested!

I got a Kugelwagen as a prize in the A-spec Beginners Euro car Championship.

Maybe the Swimmwagen is a prize in the B-spec version ?

I'll try it tonight, I'm sure Bob can win with an e-type Jag.

EDIT: Well bob won the Euro Classic car Championshp, but I won a Fiat 500 F '65, not a swimmwagen
