No-one wanted to adopt anything even remotely linked to the Ro80 when the
engines started to expire. Let's face it, the car was _at least_ fifteen
years ahead of its time.

If you analyze the Ro80 technically, I think you'll find lots of things
that appear very up-to-date even now. Like the clutchless gearchange.
