Well I kinda like that and the ad is just as mad as the car

Hmm.

"it was just a miserable excuse for a vehicle. Then fortune shined on it and it found itself winging its way into a cosy corner of our workshop."

I don't think fortune shined on it at all. Why have they fitted tyres that are way too narrow for the rims and deliberately broken the suspension? It's just a completely pointless exercise.

One persons pointless is another persons hobby.
Lots of people don’t see the point of making a car when you can buy a finished one (luckily i'm not one of those people).

As for the Aixam, its hideous and hilarious

Good luck to the builder. As said, "One man's meat..."

The build thread is on Retro Rides.

My friend's wife had a standard one a few years ago, it's probably the best thing to do with one. It used to vibrate like mad, probably why she liked it
