The K70 was a "conventional" alternative in NSU's range to the infamous
rotary engine Ro80. The "K" stands for "Kolben"; pistons in German. The two
cars share a number of similarities, including inboard disc brakes at the
front, which are a pig to work on. Other than that, and the Ro80's tendency
to wear out the engine seals, they could have been quite good cars.
Certainly the K70 is very spacious and comfortable.

However, this thread's getting a bit OT, so maybe we'd better knock it on
the head!
