Did anyone else spot the (deliberate) errors in that picture of the engine and gearbox?



you mean diskbreaks instead of drumbreaks? There are no breakpads?

True,

Heat exchangers on the wrong sides as well?

That gearbox looks about 3 times aslong as standard 2cv box!

I can't see the picture very well, but does it have any rocker gear?

The large bell housing, could contain gears for a low range, as per Subaru Legacy,
Just a mad 4x4 idea?

simple math...
X = 2 x Y, 1 x Y = 40bhp, so 2 x Y = 80bhp

X = Sahara
Y = engine ;)

What 'elongated' bell housing?
Surely, the only logical explanation for that has to be distortion of the image, because of the use of a very wide angle lens...

Otherwise there'd be some problems with the engine & gearbox not fitting onto a standard chassis. :roll:

Looking around on the site a bit I spotted on THIS page:

GEAR BOX
• Automatic (CVT).
• Available manual 4 gears

CVT? Maybe that explains the funny bell housing?
