Trevor - bigger motor, like high output twin cylender- maybe some wide wheels with mags. id buy one👍
Doug is a true BMW driver. Just look at the way he parks.
he forgot the hazard lights to signal to park wherever he wants
I passed my test in one of these in England at 17 years of age. The guy testing me couldn't face the prospect of giving me a retest. It jumped out of third gear every 20 seconds, and when it hit a pothole, developed a vibration that grew and grew and would not stop until you reduced speed to 3 mph. We got three teenagers in this car -- 2 side by side, and one between sitting on the parcel shelf with half his torso out through the sunshine roof. The car had a yellow interior and a matt brown (hand painted) exterior. I used it to go to school. One day the headmaster called me in and asked me to never park the car near the school again. The local residents had complained it was reducing the value of their houses! It ended its days when the engine blew up as I was pushing it at top speed going down hill. Max speed turned out to be 55. My father rowed me home and we gave it a decent funeral.
55mph in that thing must have felt like 120 in a normal car
Imagine being so pussy to complain that a cute car reduces their house's value... they're not just pussies, they're the whole cat shelter!
@@TheCostantinus right Ida put spinners on it and a fat subwoofer
The way your Isetta saw it’s last days sounds like the final days of the ‘74 Super Beetle I drove my last semester of high school. By then the engine had very little power left and the last trip I took it on was to our local mall to pick up my prom tuxedo. I’m surprised it made it there and back. Top speed was a cruising 55mph.
beautiful story honestly
Imagine getting honked at and then you turn around and see this car behind you

"Yeah, I drive a vintage German-engineered mid engine car"
😂😂😂
I thought it was Italian engineered and BMW built it from the Italian drawings.
Not german engineered. It was produced under ISO licence. They just ruined the beautiful original bubble shaped window, and saved themselves from bankrupcy.
Basically, it was the Smart car concept: cheap to run, minimal sized twin seater citycar.
; however, I barely fit in it
Hallo ich bin deutsch 😂😂😂🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
A small, but true Isetta story from the cold European winter of 1962/63: A woman in a small village came into labor, and her husband drove her in his Isetta into the town to the clinic. The child was born on the way (while driving over a railroad bridge, about 1 mile from the clinic). As they arrived at the clinic, the clinic staff decided it was too cold outside to open the car, so they ordered him to drive directly into the bed elevator. Arrived at the 2nd floor, they now opened the front door and got mother and healthy child out of the car.
Thank you for sharing this story! Heartwarming!
I was that healthy child
@@DetectiveConan990v3 It appears that you made it! Yay to the Isetta!
Wow, it was small enough to drive into the Hospital elevator? 😊
@@DXDragon38 Yeah, it was an elevator big enough for a bed and 2-3 attendants.

Doug, In about 1965, was 16 years old living in Southern California. I purchased an Isetta from a neighbor, who was moving, for $25. I had that car for 20 years, and wish I still had it. Was the most fun ever! They actually only had only a couple major problems, one was the shift linkage, that was likely what happened to you on your test ride, I bet it was stuck in high gear. Low gear was actually a very low gear ratio and it could climb a decent grade. The cornering roll was caused by the rear wheels being so close together, because it had a solid rear axle, and if the wheels where further apart it would take too much power to corner, so you just had to deal with the roll. It was the best chick magnet I ever owned ...... everybody wanted to ride or drive that car. I used to drive it on the sidewalks because they where smoother and it fit fine. Dispite all the antics that happened with that car, I never got a ticket .... everybody just had to smile when they drove by.
Ferrari and Porsche might be the best dude magnets, but the Isetta is clearly the best chick magnet.

@@Ferret1900 Lighten up, Francis.
Perhaps I ought to explain. I remember those days. To many people those laughable vehicles were a step up from walking or taking a bus. Better than a motorcycle if you wanted to stay dry (not as cool but that's another matter). To defeat Hitler we destroyed the entire infrastructure of the German economy. It took a while before BMW could produce vehicles approaching today's standards. Messerschmidt also produced a bubble car (as they were called) even smaller than this Italian design and closely resembling the cockpit of a fighter plane.
@@Ferret1900🤡
@@Ferret1900 On one hand I totally agree that you have to take into consideration the times and economy of the day......but at the same time this is still the most laughable car I've ever seen. They literally built a car out of a refrigerator including the door.

The Reasons grocery store near me sell these really cool car coolers. It's basically a small-ish version of an old car that's really a cooler.
Now I want to get the frame on one of these & somehow turn it into a cooler for really fancy parties.
Maybe make it so you open the door to access the cooler part.
But unfortunately I have none of the technical skills needed to make it. Otherwise I just might. I bet there's people out there who would rent it for big parties.
I was going to suggest car show but they might just beat you up for it. Still buying your beer or in my case soda from an actual old car cooler would way more fun than those $200 ones Reasors has.

@@dr.albantross1686. Well, this was not the only brand of "stupid" microcar of its era. They were built in post-WW2 Europe when times were hard. They smartly disappeared when prosperity returned.
The Chrysler dealership my father worked for in So Cal sold these as a 2nd line of cars. My dad drove one as a "demo" and I made a shift knob for it in school that he used until it was sold after reaching a certain mileage. Kids at school got a kick out of it when he drove me there. They also sold the larger model with a rear seat (if you could call it that.)

Never had a problem getting chicks in my Isetta when the alternative was a ride in the wet on a motorcycle pillion.
A tip: You should pull the choke and wait for the engine to reach a certain temperature, and then ease the choke a little (or release it completely, if it's a hot day and the idle speed is maintained), then you can drive around . When you accelerate taking the car without inertia, the engine drowns, if the choke is activated, because the engine is very small. If you leave with the vehicle before the engine is at the right temperature, it will have no power, and it will stop.
Here in Brazil there were many cars that ran only on ethanol, and even in a tropical climate, cars with ethanol needed to be throttled to warm up the engine for a few minutes before being able to drive around. There are still cars with ethanol, but they work in an automated way (our gasoline has a large amount of ethanol included, and it sucks).
As an Isetta owner, I enjoy pulling into a car show and watching the people leave the muscle car area and come to see the Isetta. The best part is letting the kids sit inside it with their parents .
This is the last video I watched with my dad before he passed away the same night. He used to be a car mechanic before he became a policeman and eventually retired so it was interisting for him. He couldn't understand English so I had to translate for him but he was astonished by this vehicle and explained to me in full how the choke mechanism actually worked. We had a few laughs because of it and the video always brings out quite a few fond memories when I go back and watch it. Thank you, Doug!
My condolences...
Your dad is surely a great person and a great car enthusiasts
Well, wasn't expecting a comment like this here... Really cool memory!
Hope you're doing well man.

Sorry for your lost
The Isetta is the car that saved BMW from bankruptcy.
how so
at the time this car was made world war 2 ended buildings roads were destroyed people needed small cars to drive around so bmw purchased the isetta from another automobile.
@@avdcrx5441 That exactly was the reason for the existance of this car.
The US industry provided jobs in abundance during WW2 and emerged from the war undamaged, and could continue to produce to rebuild Europe, which raised the incomes for the people considerably during the fifties, and car ownership was a normal thing even for the blue collar worker in 1950s USA.
Europe on the other hand was rampaged by war, not much of industry was left intact, roads and railways destroyed, and many people lost their houses.
The second half of the 40's and the 50's were essentially a period of repair, and therefore wages didn't rise much as money was mostly needed for repair of the industry and everything else in fact, it was a time of austerity.
Car ownership was very low, most blue collar workers travelled by foot, bicycle or public transport, look up photographs of 1950's suburbs in European cities and you will see streets with almost no cars, in fact less than 15% of households in the UK owned a car in 1950 while it was almost half of the households in the US that owned a car in the same year.
So these cheap small cars were developed to offer an affordable alternative to the normal cars of the time.
@@Tom-Lahaye well, glad to hear the US profitted so much.

Here in Germany, people used to call the Isetta (hint: pronounced ee-zetta) "Schlaglochsuchgerät" - Bump detector device, because the different width of the axes meant you'd inevitably hit any bump.
Schlagloch= pot hole ;)

Doug, this review of a refrigerator just made my day that much better. So ridiculous and funny. Lol
My uncle drove the Isetta from Germany to Italy taking the old Gotthard road in the 1960ies. He managed to store my aunt and my cousin, a big tent, an inflatable boat, clothes and what else was needed for a two-week-holiday inside (!) the car. He did this four years in a row except that in the second year he got a luggage rack that was placed on the spare tire on which he put the boat on. These guys were real adventurers!
Wow, now that's an adventure!! XD
My great uncle did the same, but he had the rack form the first day on :)
Edgar Allan Poe paah you call this adventure ? My mum and dad planned and constructed me inside an Insetta, even mum gave birth to me inside this car.

That Isetta was extremely badly maintained. I owned one back in the early 1960s, so I know a bit about them. First, that steering play was due to badly worn out bushes in the horizontal steering linkage. Steering should be taught and immediate. Second the brakes should be super sharp, and I used to have to be careful not to brake too hard because it would splat my passenger against the windscreen. Maybe that's because the British version was fitted with the same brakes as a Mini, but the Isetta was much lighter. Third, it should have no problem with that hill. There are two very steep hills in my town, and my Isetta could get up them in low gear and with a passenger on board. Top speed on the flat should be 50 mph also, so I guess yours has a worn out engine. The British version had only one rear wheel to comply with British law. The 4 wheel version required a full car licence. I bought mine because I had only a motorcycle licence, and was fed up with getting wet in our rainy weather. I just did not earn enough at the time to afford to buy and run a proper car. I loved that little car that was so much fun to drive, and have considered getting one as a second car, but in good condition they change hands now for £15,000 (19,000 USD) or more as collectors items. I'm sure that if you tested a1960 Cadillac with a knackered engine, shot streering bushes, and seriously faulty brakes, you would be just as unimpressed.
Yup, condition is everything.
I agree with most of the above, try a properly maintained sample. Mine was the three wheel version, would touch 70 MPH go up any hills, including the steepest in Sheffield England, and handle pretty well. One of the best handling 3 wheelers made.
Wish I still had the Isetta, was terrific fun to own and drive.

Hi Dough, THANKS a lot for that so detailed, interesting, and nice funny vid about my first car I owned in 1968. Earlier, had no camera, no cellphones of course, I got no pictures but good memories.I drove it half year only. I changed the rims inside-out on all four wheels then the Isetta was looking like a wide beast. I drove like hell with it as far as you could do. At the club I collected at night 10 DM (5$ approx) then I turned the car a speed of 40-50 in front of the club by 180 degrees by using the little hand break. Sometimes the car went up on two wheels but with the wider distance of wheels per axle it was easy to handle back on road.
After half year having fun a older person watched my and bought me another car (NSU TT) with which I started rally racing in German Championship.
I am a typical German Engineer, lived for engineering and construction over 25 years in foreign countries outside Europe. I am 100% and successful, made a big invention in Texas (oil & gas) and based on that and conversion into private photography cameras (FullFormat), I still do private model photography in infrared technology. I am retired, 72 years old, active and healthy, latest kids are 1 and 3 years old and I live for retirement in Kenya.
Thanks again, regards

He had it parked near his dormitory at college, and one day when returning from class, he saw a thief trying unsuccessfully to start it. He sauntered up to his car and asked the "driver" if he was having trouble. The thief replied, yeah, I can't seem to get it to start. So the owner said, scoot over a moment and let me try. While the thief wasn't looking for a moment, he reached under the dash and flicked the fuel pump power switch on, then started the car. The very surprised thief asked, "How did you know how to start it?" The owner replied, "Because it's MY car!"
The thief bailed very quickly.
My grandfather had one and I love to go to school in it. Just a note the outside or inside mirror was not required in Italy when it was built.
back in the 60's -80's Flippo The Clown in Columbus Ohio channel 10 CBS, drove one, the opening of his showed had him driving to work in it, and he actually did drive it, it was in his driveway, lived by one of my cousin's...he also drove it to Mount Air swimming pool on Saturday's and did a Saturday show from the pool on TV... my family was a member plus i took my Red Cross swimming lessons there
well.. thanks to the Isetta.. BMW is still alive.
What the fuck is your profile Picture. And second yep your right

In Germany we call this "Schlaglochsuchgerät" which means pothole detection device 😀
Yeah,
any pothole that the driver tries to avoid with the front wheels inevitably hits the rear wheels & vice versa...
What
Schlasdahcfbasdbfasudbfaosubdyfoasuybdfoausbfaoyusbf
Ich dachte man nennt es knutschkugel
In Germany we call it * *smashes violently the head against the keyboard* *
That's that *Steve Urkle - Family Matters* Car 🎬📺🚗🤣🤣😬😂
Had one years ago. It flitted around quite briskly. The suspension tended to be jumpy, otherwise it was comfortable to sit in and drive
Parallel parking must be a breeze though lmao you can just fit into any parking spot without any effort
As a matter of fact it is parked the italian way: Nose first into the sidewalk. It's the only way you can get in and out.
+Susazeu Perpendicular parking!
Parking spot? You can probably drive this thing right into your house and park it in your living room!
Actualy a nightmare! No reverse gear, if you pull up to close to somthing you couldn't get out
you can fucking carry the car into the park spot.... you don't even need to drive

David Bufkin I accidentally clicked on ur channel and i hope you get better 😌😌
We need to call Clarkson, Hammond and May and have them put these in a race: Yugo, Isetta and Lada! I don't know who will ask for which car but I think May would prefer the Isetta, Hammond the Lada and Clarkson the Yugo.
this is probs my favorite doug video
In the 60's as a child(6) I had a go in one of these by my uncle who owned one....I still picture to this day the steering wheel moving while stuck to the door...I thought it was the coolest thing. The memory of it is like just yesterday.
Him filming: seems like we are driving through a war zone
Reality: him going 3 mph
Julius Behner All he does is mock the whole thing
This car is basically if Dr. Suess decided instead of being a children's author, he wanted to create cars instead.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
why did doug feeling so happy and exited when he was driving it😂
Somewhere in chicago STEVE URKEL
