    That would be nice but aside from giving the existing gavrils (specifically the d-series YET another config to the already great wall of d-series configs) a modern facelift, but I dunno about the grand marshal, that might require a new body outright probably the same with the roamer since both those bodies would be really dated in a modern design sense. On the topic of the legran wagon, I know its possible to do a transversally mounted engine and still be all wheel drive but here's a thought on the chassis sub-subject and I know its the case of the eagle since they used a jeep's drivetrain...hopper drivetrain maybe? It's really hard to speculate much on a car config that supposedly awd when you know the car is unibody when the other vehicle drivetrain's are for body on frame cars with so little info, but that is my best guess which is so wrong since Bruckell and Ibishu are two entirely different companies from different regions but its just a shot in the dark.

    Although there are some interesting options for the mystery Bruckell's drivetrain, I doubt we will see anything too weird with it (relatively speaking, since the vehicle itself is already rather strange). The Pontiac 6000 (GM A-Body platform, closest thing IRL to the LeGran) was offered with AWD. Throw on a big lift kit to that and we have this new LeGran derivative. This is a lot less work and more sensible than any alternative I can think of.

    Possible its just a Lifted FWD wagon ?

    OR like a Pessima AWD with lifted springs.


    Mind you a AWD wendova With 5 speed super charge. Those good looks ( i love the way it looks now shoot me ;) ) And a G920 yes sign me up


    Time will tell.

    Just because something doesn't appear in-game, doesn't mean it can't exist canonically. By that measure, you could also argue that bugs, the Black Sea, and New Wave religion don't exist in the Beam-verse. :p

    About the legran wagon, if it wasn't much to talk about they probably wouldn't have deleted the pic of it right after posting. I'm assuming it's official since the game literally doesn't have any older wagon at all.

    The game doesn´t have any other wagon than the ETK 850.

    Yes and no. If you go to the configs, you will find 4 and 6 cyl models. 4 cyl = 854, 6 cyl = 856

    Gavril Grand Marshall and Gavril Roamer looking old and needing new bodies? Na, there be no need for that since Wagenwrights/Wagenmakers out there sell things that be oldlook but be not old at all such as: Suzuki Jimny, Toyota Century, Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen/Gelandewagen, Ford Bronco, Nissan 400Z,Honda e, Honda N-One, Honda N-WGN, Toyota FJ Cruiser, Rolls-Royce Phantom, Caterham Seven, anything made by Morgan, anything made by Mitsuoka.

    I was going to say, that's definitely not a torsion beam rear suspension on the LeGran.

    I believe some trims of the Vivace use torsion beam suspensions. I could be remembering wrong though.

    ETK 800 is the name for the whole series - like BMW 3 series. ETK 850 are just the wagons, but since we don´t have the ETK 840 sedan yet, it isn´t needed to differentiate them. ETK 854 are just wagons with 4 cylinder engines and ETK 856 are just wagons with 6 cylinder engines.

    Did you even read the post you quoted or you just saw 3 words in it and decided to argue again
