Skoda Buggy Type 736 (1973) - In contrast to similar beach mobiles from Italy and France, the Škoda Buggy Type 736 had a radiator, battery and fuel tank in the front section - good for better weight distribution. Robust roll bars protected the four occupants.

Skoda Buggy Type 736 (1973) - Thanks to the minimalist interior, the buggy was easy to maintain and clean after hard use. Access to the doorless vehicle was via the raised and stiffened side sills. An attached textile roof and side panels with transparent windows protected the occupants in the rain.
