I don't think Corvairs could roll over. They were nice and roomy. A good car for teenagers because they couldn't accelerate too fast and held the road like a brick.
May Ralph Nader go to hell for killing off two of the best cars of the era. The Corvair and the Bug.
Sadly to say, the British did it to themselves.
Anyone know why the British don't manufacture computers?
The engineers haven't figured out where the oil should leak from yet........

Yeah, but my Brit bikes, i.e. Bonnevilles, Trophy Cub, Matchless Twin, etc., and BSA Rocket III, were the only motorcycles I ever owned that I didn't need to ever change oil in...
Just add a pint every weekend! LOL

“they couldn’t accelerate too fast”
My buddy had one with a turbocharger. It was pretty quick. A blast to drive! Like a big go kart!
I still drive the ‘91 LS-400 I inherited from my Dad. Wonderful car. Luxurious, fast, (I chickened out at about 135), handles great. Bought a used Highlander in ‘o2. Great car. Only have had to replace all three oxy sensors, 1 brake job.
