It reminds me of my old Citroen BX, what a slab of unworthiness that thing was. I really have to wonder how the Steinwinter was supposed to be pratical, with such dreadful clearance? A case of whimsical design, perhaps.
My father had a Citroen bx, I'd like to hear more why you think it's a "slab of unworthiness". I never had any contact with it as an adult.

What do you mean? The BX looked great. Nice 80s futurism before everything turned into this terrible rounded blob later-on.
I can't believe something like this would get any further than artist's renderings. The visibility would be shite.
