That is of course ILTIS, not ILTAS. It is a very cool car, one of VW's least
known models.It was powered by a 1714 ccm variant of the Golf/Rabbit-Audi etc.
engine, with an output of 75 hp, taking the car to a top speed of 130 kmh. The
wheelbase is just 201,7 cm, with the total length being 388,7 cm. I've only
seen one of these cars once, it was with german plates. There were two guys
driving, the top and windshield was down, with two crates? of beer strapped to
the hood :-)
