Whenever someone posts a link about these, I get an irresistible urge to post a link to an article with pictures of one being moved by helicopter, so here goes: https://digitaltmuseum.se/0211812518755/flygvapenmuseums-fut... (in Swedish, but Google Translate usually handles that fairly well).

I suspect it's not just because few were made, and not just because of the questionable materials used.
I know taste is subjective and the design is iconic, but these really are devastatingly ugly in my opinion. It might just be that some of the previous owners were okay with letting them fade into history.
I do have a sense of humor though, and would love to see one with a Fiat Multipla parked out front.
I think it’s actually the design and in particular usability.
They seem inaccessible and impractical. Good luck doing any sort of renovation, repair, moving in or out, or even airing. Note the single hatch entrance and completely sealed windows.
Pretty fun place too

It's just that it's one thing to like how something looks and another is to want to have it.
