View Full Version : What is a "secma"?

Saw this car friday night in Geneva (I seem to see a new weird car every day in that city).

It looked like a mini beetle. Very small. The front and rear were both bright yellow bulges. You could see a large horizontal exhaust on the back (made a loud noise!). The middle portion of the car was like a rounded cocoon, and when the owner (a chick!) stepped out, she pushed the door open, and this door opened up on a hinge that travels right between the middle of the car at the very top (the door opened kinda like the legendary SL gullwing doors). The whole door seemed to be made of a black fabric and seemed to have a plastic window on the side.

On the rear, there was the word "Secma" on a logo that seemed to sport a small french or italian flag (can't remember for sure which one it was, I think it was a French flag) and a small picture of what seemed to be a wolfs head.

The wheels were kinda exposed, like in the Ariel Atom.

So, anyone know what I'm talking about? I don't think the engine is very big, probably max 1 liter with 80hp, but it seemed to make quite a lot of noise and seemed quite funny, in a funky way :)

Yup, that was it. Weird looking car. Strange that my google search didn't wield any results last night *scratches head*

Weird it is for sure, but I am sure it can be funny at times! For sure it is "different" :D
