Presumably it has to be Type Approved? Look towards the end when the car is shown up close. How do they get away with so many sharp edges at the front then, when if it was IVA'd presumably it would fail?

I had a close look at one of these at the Malvern Garden Show last month (don't ask how I ended up there!) - beautiful!
I do want one.

Probably because it's not classed as a car so it doesn't go for IVA.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Even mopeds have their own IVA nowdays, so this will have to go through its own checks. That is, unless they go down the route of full type approval, which then allows them to get away with almost anything, as long as it meets C&U regs, sort of maybe.

Cheers,
Nev.

streamline? he's have a laugh right?

economical, 50 mpg? a family saloon can get that.

not sure about the wire wheels, I like them but they could have come up with some light nice looking alloys.

but good luck to them, nice to see something diffent, not entirely sure why they went for MX5 geatbox (that is what he said right?) as surely a motorcycle gearbox would be lighter and maybe better suited.
