What is this?

I came across a web site Histmobile (http://www.histomobile.com) which purported to give details of every car and model made world wide. Whilst browsing through it I looked up the page for Goggomobil and found no mention of the Dart. I advised them accordingly and I think they now have the Dart as part of the Goggo line up.

That got me thinking about the other cars from Australia which were not on the site and so I did a little research and came up with the info on the Tontala in and old Wheels magazine article.

Which itself reminds me of an old copy of Modern Motor I have which gave details of a Melbourne produced car called a Tilley which was a 2 seater 3 wheeler with a very pretty body but it never got past the prototype stage as the Mini Minor was announced a few months later and the promoter saw that he had been well and truly gazumped by BMC.

Another car I just remembered was the incredibly ugly Lightburn Zeta which used a 2 cylinder 350cc Villiers 2 stroke which engaged reverse by stopping the motor and re-starting it in the opposite direction giving you 4 speeds in reverse or I suppose more accurately backwards. But even though they did make a 2 seater, based in the UK Frisky, I think it is so far away from things Bristol that I should probably stop.

Cheers
