7:01 and 7:38 - the Volvo Tundra concept pretty much became the Citroen BX. And in true Italian style of the time, they went asymmetric with the offset radiator grille. Had that made it into the '90s, the facelift model would be symmetrical. 9:54 - The Citroen GS Camargue (Ka-marg) was a stunning concept which has some looks of the Renault Alpine. 10:25 - Citroen Karin wants to speak to Tesla's manager! 9:21 - The corrugated G van became the HY van which was a production model with a long production run. The ones made specifically for the Dutch market had front hinged doors (with DS door handles on the inside) while all others had suicide doors. They were popular then and still are as roadside cafes and chip vans and had a multitude of body styles and different length wheel bases. 11:45 - That's pretty much the Citroen C6 which became a production model car and the last of the proper Big Citroens (TA, DS, SM, CX and XM) which replaced the XM back in around 2000. There was a production model parked to the left of it in the photo (you can only see the headlight). 13:42 - The 'new' Citroen logo in an oval is just an older logo that's been recycled. Also the thing with Citroen is no matter what level the car was, from the simple and affordable 2cv right up to the complex and expensive SM, they were all badged as Citroens and sold through the same dealers selling all the different level models on the same forecourts as opposed to having completely different brand names to effectively separate the different levels (eg. Ford-Edsel-Mercury-Lincoln, Chevrolet-Pontiac-Buick-Oldsmobile-Cadillac, Honda-Acura, Toyota-Lexus, Nissan-Infiniti, etc.)

The Aston Martin green probably comes from British racing green. Brits used to race in green, Germans in silver, etc.

No probably about it, that's why.👍

[@wheelmonkey00]

The colour was sold to ppg when Rover collapsed Until that point some cars were Brit racing green but weren't It was down to the Gold flick in the paint

British racing cars could be painted in any shade of green - quite why dark green came to be regarded as BRG I'm not sure - probably marketing.

[@JohnWhite-nq5kn]

My uncle was a test driver for Renault and lauded the alpine idea and drove as part of the team on one of those rallys, damn good and fast cars, they could reach two hundred mph and were tested on the german Autobahn, again in the early seventees

[@obijon7441]

I think my favourite ever concept was the Renault Espace F1! It was basically Renault's world championship winning F1 car with a Renault Espace people carrier bodyshell over the top. Not sure the need for doing the school run at 200mph but it was a hell of sight to see it blasting around a track.

regarding the Vespa "as close to a scooter as can be": check out the "Messerschmitt Kabinenroller", a 3-wheeler from 1953 with a 175ccm engine. Yes, the same Messerschmitt that made fighter jets in WW2. Also on the topic of crazy little cars: BMW Isetta

[@tobias_dahlberg]

17:31 that Volvo GT actually made it to production in form of the super rare Polestar 1 plug in hybrid GT car, body entirely out of carbon fiber, like 600hp or something, crazy complicated dual rear electric engines for true torque vectoring. It was an experiment in technology that actually made it into production. Doubt it would be trouble-free to own but it's sort of the idea and concept in of itself that is cool.

[@yapod9061]

That's one of the most beautiful car out there and for 150k € I think it's whorth it.

[@eddiestevenson-kaatsch6306]

The Vespa car was built. I bought one from Portugal and imported into the UK some years ago. The Aston Martin Bulldog was a real car too. Mike Lowsby was the suspension guru at Aston Martin at the time, and lived a few doors down from our family home in Warwickshire (warricksher) where he parked this under a tarp on the grass outside his house. As I knew him well, he told me about it, a truly fascinating car. Just the one was built and was fully production ready, but as always, Aston was in financial difficulties and the Bulldog ended up being sold off. Last I heard it was with a collector in the States.The car was MONUMENTALLY quick.

You should see what Luigi Colani designed as car and truck concepts. This guy was wild in everything he came up with.

[@bennyhannover9361]

Yes we have a Rosengart Museum here in North Rhine Westfalia and the founder told us that Mr Colani one day walked into the hall and pointed on the last Rosengart small car postwar the Ariette from 1951 and he said I have designed that and I can give you the script and sketches to it. But he never did , he died near Berlin. He studied in France around 1949/50 worked with Philippe Charbonneau.

[@SimonLandmine]

The yellow headlamps on that Citroen concept were because from 1937 to 1993, French law required cars to have yellow headlamps. (Which also means that those British folk of a certain age will remember having to apply temporary yellow stain or filters to their headlamps before boarding the ferry to France (as well as the dipped-beam adjusters to stop our dipped headlights pointing _into_ the eyes of oncoming drivers). And that for several weeks afterwards, it was obvious to the neighbours that you'd been to France on holiday.)

[@amduser86]

actually the law was introduced, so french cars were different to german cars. nobody needed the yellow tint, except for the french cars ...

[@SimonLandmine]

@@amduser86It's not entirely clear why the law was originally introduced in the 30s - there was an argument that it was thought yellow light would pierce fog better, or was required by the French military for ... some reason.

[@danielhillier7417]

The Aston Martin Bulldog is a fully working car, I've seen it in person quite recently. 600 bhp twin turbo V8, the current owner restored the concept car, its changed colour and it was always supposed to be a 200mph car but never did a run back in the day. The current owner has apparently achieved 205mph in the restored car.

11:10 actually the ambear headlights aren't "random". Up until 1990 or so, ALL cars registered in France were required to have amber headlights for some odd historic reason. Then regular white headlights were allowed and nowadays newly registered cars in France can't have amber headlights any more.

[@SimonLandmine]

Yeah - about fifty years. Never made a lot of sense to us! The EU does in fact allow new cars to have amber headlights ... but halogen bulbs lose a lot of power through amber filters, and it doesn't make sense for the manufacturers to make yellow lenses just for the French, so they've given up.

[@arthur_p_dent]

@@SimonLandmine amber headlights may be legal to buy and sell, but they are certainly not legal to have on a car that drives on the road. Fog lamps can be white or yellow. Everything else, except for the blinkers, has to be white.

The interesting part about Citroen is that you look at the concept models and you can actually see the end result on the roads , like the C6 , the C4 grand picasso or how the new C3 used a lot of the OLI concept ideas. Hope they keep pushing the envelope ... BTW the last car seems to be a Cupra (Seat).

Camargue is a part of the French Riviera coast close to Monte Carlo, there is also a road named like this. Between 1973 and 1989 there was also a Rolls Royce Coupe with this name. For some time the most expensive Rolls beside a handmade Phanrom VI..around 200.000 dollars in 1988!

Micro cars where developed for people who only held a motor cycle license this means they could have a car but did not need to pass a separate test to use they them , are not allowed to drive anything bigger so these became popular with the motor cyclist giving them the advantages of a car with out the hassles of taking lessons and a test , concept cars never make the consumer market only variations of them and there features go into production

Before the yellow 'Sport Lounge', was the Citroen C6 prototype.

[@da3z839]

one of my favourite concept cars is the r8 tdi, a 6 liter diesel v12 shoved into an audi r8. it never made it to production because the r8 had to be heavily modified in order to fit the huge engine, though there is one out there that runs and drives. They did however, put it into their suv, the q7, which they made quite a lot of with the v12 diesel

[@samuelbhend2521]

@ IWrocker There's a Video of a running Ferrari Modulo on the Internet, with Sound and inside View! The Videotitle is: 1970 Ferrari 512 S Pininfarina Modulo with 5.0 V12 at Villa d'Este 2019

[@MichaEl-rh1kv]

Pininfarina is the design office responsible for the design of the 512 S Modulo, based on the chassis No. 23 of the Ferrari 512 S (which was a race car competing with the Porsche 917, of which only 25 instances were built). The Lancia Stratos Zero was designed by Bertone, another Italian car design office and car body manufacturer. They also designed the NSU Sport Prinz and the Citroen XM. The Bugatti study looks a lot like a typical Bugatti after the take-over by Volkswagen. The Citroen C44 was originally a Volkswagen Iltis (German for polecat), which was used by the German and the Canadian armed forces. In the late 1970s the French government made a call for tender to replace their Hotchkiss Jeeps. Peugeot teamed up with Mercedes to built a G-Wagen with Peugeot engines (called a P4), while Citroen took the VW Iltis as base for its C-44. The P4 was awarded the contract. (In Germany the Iltis had secured the 1970s contract, while the "Wolf", the military version of the Mercedes G (produced partly by Steyr-Puch in Austria) made the 1980s/1990s tendering.)

[@michaelteret4763]

European concept cars from the 1960s-80s are one of my special interests, I could go on about them for hours. If you like these, one day maybe you’d enjoy learning about the great designers of the time - Giorgetto Giugiaro, Marcello Gandini, Paolo Martin, Paul Bracq, and many others.

[@xavichuvy9047]

That Volvo Tundra concept car from Bertone by Marcello Gandini was based on the Reliant FW11 concept and ended up as the production Citroën BX. My father had one when I was a kid. Loved that car. That Xanae concept became the Citroën Xsara Picasso. The "ugly", bizzarre looking concept became the Citroën C6. The glorified golf cart became the Citroën Ami. As for the Oli, you can see the new logo and some of its design ideas on the latest Citroëns. The Volvo with the funny rear window became the 480. And the cool one the Polestar 1. The last one, Cupra UrbanRebel will make it into production next year (sort of). Also, check the Maserati Boomerang. A one-off concept car with a wild interior someone made road-legal in Spain and could be regularly seen driving around Benidorm.

[@rasmuswi]

The Volvo Tundra was Bertone's suggestion for what the Volvo 343 should look like. Volvo felt that the design was too daring and "out there" and decided to pass on it. Citroën snapped it up and it became the Citroën BX.

I guess it's still kept secret like the 984 was for a long time. 17:35 is the Cupra Urban Rebel. Cupra means Cup Racer. The brand is a daughter and the motorsports department of the spanish manufacturer Seat, which belongs to Volkswagen. 1985 to 2018 Cupra did only motorsports and Seat didn't have a name for sporty street models. Since 2018 Seat distributes sporty street models as Cupras. They are build on the same platforms as all of the VW group cars of same size and they mostly share even the same engines.
