River Find Isetta

Updated: 18 May 2013

BMW Isetta on the banks of the Des Plaines River in northern Illinois. This was submerged in the river for an unknown amount of time (maybe 20 years?) until one of the "Water Trailkeepers" that patrols that section found it and later winched it out onto the embankment where it sits today. This footage was shot when the water level was relatively low. How the car got there in the first place is unknown. It was most likely tossed into the river to dispose of it at some point in the past someplace upstream and the river moved it to this spot. Serial number is not accessible, motor is gone, no useable parts, metal is paper thin. This is its final resting place.

In 1956, the government of the Federal Republic of Germany changed the regulations for motor vehicles. Class IV licences issued from that time onward could only be used to operate small motorcycles and could no longer be used to operate motor vehicles with a capacity of less than 250 cc. At the same time, the maximum capacity allowed for the Isetta's tax category was 300 cc. Class IV licences issued before the change in the regulations were grandfathered and allowed to be used as before. This change in regulations encouraged BMW to revise their Isetta microcars. In October 1956, the Isetta Moto Coupe DeLuxe (sliding-window Isetta) was introduced. The bubble windows were replaced by longer, sliding side windows. The engineers had enlarged the single cylinder to a 72 mm (2.8 in) bore and 73 mm (2.9 in) stroke, which gave a displacement of exactly 298 cc; at the same time, they raised the compression ratio from 6.8 to 7.0:1. As a result, the engine power output rose to 10 kW (13 hp) at 5200 rpm, and the torque rose to 18.4 N·m (13.6 ft·lbf) at 4600 rpm. The maximum speed remained at 85 km/h (53 mph), yet there was a marked increase in flexibility, chiefly noticeable on gradients. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- El Isetta fue uno de los microcoches más exitosos producidos en los años posteriores a la Segunda Guerra Mundial; una época en la que se necesitaba un transporte económico y de corta distancia. Aunque el diseño es italiano, se construyó en países como España, Bélgica, Francia, Brasil, Alemania o el Reino Unido. debido a su peculiar forma de huevo y sus ventanas de burbuja, adquirió el apodo del coche-pompa. En otros países fue: "Das rollende Ei" (Huevo con ruedas) ó "Sargwagen" (Tumba sobre ruedas) en Alemania; "pot de yaourt" (Tarro de yogur) en Francia; "Bola de futebol de fenemê" (Pelota de fútbol de camión) en Brasil; y en Chile todavía es conocido como el "Huevito", En Argentina se lo conoce como "Bragueta" (el cierre delantero de los pantalones de hombres por ingresar por el frente), o también con el nombre de "Auto Ratón", por su tamaño.
