The DAF was an elastic band car with infinite ratios as the cones moved. Similar to some small motorbikes & scooters.

Our Scout master in Devon had a DAF. unfortunately we met at the Seminary high above the town up a very steep hill. The car simply couldn't make it up one of the routes to the top.
The other Scout master had a 2 stroke Wartburg . The DAF was more reliable (just)
