A virtual mars bar to the first person to get the answer to this!

The Porsche 917 and the Lancia 037 share a unique* feature regarding their tubular chassis.

What is the feature that is common to both cars?

*I know what you pedants are going to say but don't :-)

Weren't the tubes filled with gas? Can't remember which gas but I remember tales of leaky 917s.

Do I win the Mars Bar?

Bah, you win the virtual mars bar. Humph that didn't last long! Yes, they both contained an inert gas which alerted the driver to any structural damage. Apparently the porsche version used to show empty at the first corner always so they abandoned it!
