thanks but much more inter like on the photo i found on google . how do i add these links ?
-
Can't see the connection myself, looks like a Transit after a front end accident and given how much the students I cart around in MPV's moan whenever they get a seat where they can't open the window next to them, I can see this concept of an MPV with with no rear windows being about as popular as a Justin Bieber cover version of War Pigs.

Not sure what you are like PC wise, so I will act as if you are as good as my dad (sorry if you arent that PC-dumb ;) )
At the top of the page, you can see a link, like http://www.RUMcars.org/forum/index.php?action............. (etc)
You click on the text. It should auto highlight it (select it). If not, select it manually. Then, right click and click "copy", and go back to the forum, post new topic, thehn rifght click, paste.
Not sure what browser you are using, probably IE, firefox or G-chrome.
I use Google Chrome, and I can right click on a picture, and it has an option to copy the link of the image, then I paste it.
If you have a direct link to the image (not the page), you can type [img ][ /img] (without spaces between)

surely it's THE NOSE !!

Now thats an Inter. Good looking driver too!

love those dome tops :D

I can't see the Inter connection myself, but don't anyone get snippy about the gorgeous Citroen H van that they based it on - I think they got the tapered 'snout' look just right.

no argument there, but reckon the new one will remain just a concept anyway

The H van reminds me of the Spanish Solyto called the Delfin

The H was a brilliant piece of design, I think the real insult to the H is for Citroen to try to pretend that the Tubik has anything remotely to do with it. I think it's more likely to have been based on a cross between a Ford Transit and a Staffordshire bull terrier.
-
Tubik? Re engined H van please, leaving enough money to perhaps buy the reproduction Inter planned secretly somewhere. More style and better concept like being able to get out at a filling station under the canopy. Pillocks!

Are you sure it wasn't the Audi Urban concept you were looking at?

How much do they charge, wirelessly or otherwise?

That looks more like it! It would lok more lie the inter (it would also look better!) if it had a single headlight in the middle

Now that's better. :) And this time I can see an interrelationship!

Wireless charging? How does that work?

Charging car batteries is not quite the same though. Higher amperage etc, but maybe I'm just thinking of lead acid. Still its only a concept car as most likely is the charging system!

This is where technology comes in...
The bigger, the better!
I'm sure that the iphone charger was a bit tricky for them to make in the beginning, but now they know how, it should be very simple (for them) to make a different style one.

What a load of PR gough. Tell me something I do not know. Wireless charging is by induction. Therefore road or space infrastructure is required which means backing as that is more expensive than a plug and a bit of wire. Once again this fantastic machine does, er, oh dear, about 50 miles before it doesn't work any more. So popping up to visit Richard will still take Two days. Funny how my Messerschmitt out of the same 'pidgeon hole' can do it in a less than a day and is probably cheaper. It all lets pretend stuff isn't. The answer is already out there, get on and build it at a sensible price and stop profiteering.
