I love the quote they chose


"Imagination is more important than knowlege."

Just what you want to hear from someone whose design you are trusting your life to!

Dreadful directional stability, weaving all over the road and the driver sawing away at the wheel.

Probably due to the fact that the front wheel is not in the middle!

I hope it cannot exceed 20 mph, for everyones safety.

What's a Robin Reliant? is it like an Escort Ford or an Astra Vauxhall?

I have sat in the background long enough, I'm not not happy that people can critisise other peoples efforts, after all what have they done? I was getting more and more wound up, until that is I had a look at this beauty.

I cannot find it in my heart to say anything positive! That is a first for me, even if it's hideous there is usually some element of the design that is worth considering as part of another project

Good on the guy for finishing the build and getting it on the road. Its all to easy to sit criticising someone else's design when yours was sold as a project 12 months ago.

I think all of us here fully apprecaite the time effort and money that can be put into a dream and this is never in doubt.
Nor do we set out to deride that effort even if the finished article is not to our particular taste.

It's still crap

More twitchy than smack-head looking for a fix.

Looks like Homer Simpsons version of the Pink Panther car.

Actually to be fair it looks decently put together (didn't see much of it) just could do with a revision of the layout
