thanks!
must admit having built an mk indy in the past (which i loved), i feel the mini is a bit more special, the reaction it gets is amazing. the best thing
is you can park it up , lock it and leave it, its got a roof and still has rear wheel drive with all the fun of a bike engine
cheers ady

Hi,
I was in the black MK Indyblade going out of Matlock towards Tansley.
You were just exercising your right foot as I went past.

7's handle better overall,
i guess cos the mini has a shorter wheel base its harder to stop the back end coming around.
because its so small it has more of a "go kart feel" (if you've driven a go kart it is very similar) which makes it fun
