| There are a couple additional BMW cars that are
related or derive their inspiration to the little Isetta. One is the BMW 600, sometimes
called 'the big Isetta' or the 'Isetta 600' It retained the door as the front of the car
but added one door to the side for access to the rear seat. The 600 derived its power from
a 600cc motorcycle engine found in the rear of the car. The BMW 700 is considered by many
to part of the Isetta line, but shares little of its traditional car-like design with the
Isetta or the 600. It is powered by a 700cc motorcycle engine. In addition to the Isetta, there were many
other strange bubble cars to come out in the 1950s, some of which share a great deal of
design influence from the isetta. Others are unique in their own right. I've also supplied
a few links to these sites. And if any one has an extra mopetta lying around, please send
it to me! |
