The way petrol's going up in price, it has a certain appeal... certainly the range is fine for my normal drives out and about.

Perhaps you could put a strip of card up against the spokes...

I like it, think how easy it would be to get permission for a race track if it was only allowed electric vehicles on it - they would be popping up everywhere.

The question is - can it be built for £250?
