Theoretically if a car is lower, then it is more aerodynamic (obviously if something 'isn't there' it doesn't block airflow). But the owner of this car took it too seriously:

Maybe he was inspirated by "The Fast and the Furious" and wanted to ride under Trucks. Compare the height of the car to the height of the kid standing behind it.

I think it's somewhet of a Death-Trap. If you hit anything or anything hits you, it'll just slide right under it and you'll be crushed. I feel sorry for him the 1st time Semi truck doesn't see him and decides to change lanes or slam on it's breaks.

how does he drive that??? lying on stumach??? must look funny in ur rear-view mirror: a caravan moving by itself!
i just see the doors cut a piece out of the roof, for "easy entrance". only problem is, if u sit up straight, ur head will stick thru the roof :?
poor kids who are going on holidays with this dude!
and then to think its a volvo: theyre known for safety, roominess and practicality!!!
I like the idea.... But would not dare to drive it oh high ways.. :)

it could work if you were reclined in your seat enough and you used a motorcycle engine. The honda F4i engine and trans would fit in the rear. Maybe a modified super 7 kit?
A bike engine in a car that has to pull a caravan? This pic is sure a mistery LOL.
But check out the hood... there is something in the center... like if the top of the engine is coming out... maybe the engine is actually there...
it doesn't look half bad it kind a catchy

Its volvo 850 estate..And I like it..But otherwise its a show car.I can't see anyone driving that thing for real unless the roof comes off.

looks more like an 850, read on another place that it was built on basis of a 245. Do you have some more info about it ?
