    Whenever someone posts a link about these, I get an irresistible urge to post a link to an article with pictures of one being moved by helicopter, so here goes: https://digitaltmuseum.se/0211812518755/flygvapenmuseums-fut... (in Swedish, but Google Translate usually handles that fairly well).

    This town has a dog for a mayor. No joke.

    Pretty fun place too

    I suspect it's not just because few were made, and not just because of the questionable materials used.

    I know taste is subjective and the design is iconic, but these really are devastatingly ugly in my opinion. It might just be that some of the previous owners were okay with letting them fade into history.

    I do have a sense of humor though, and would love to see one with a Fiat Multipla parked out front.

      It's not they are ugly or beautiful.

      It's just that it's one thing to like how something looks and another is to want to have it.
