    got to be armoured to be a Panzer. Perhaps the Third Reich would have designated it a Sonderkraftzeugwagen.

    there only seems to be one photo of this online - from one angle.

    there's a video of a 1/2-track smart fortwo:

    the 1/2 track version makes me wonder if you could get the same tracks for a Land Rover... Like a Cuthbertson with a lot less height.

    Or try this one - the approach and departure angles are impressive - I'm guessing about 120 degrees for each?

    Errrm........ aren't Smarts front wheel drive? That would make it a trailing track.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
