That’s just a silly thing to kill owners

One thought occurred to me - how did he manage to get that approved and registered, when French locost builders can't get their cars legal for
love nor money?

£172k - a tad expensive; I'd rather spend it on Murcielano (or whatever it is called).

I kind of like the simplicity of it - Basically an engine bolted directly to some wheels.
However, did you notice that in the video, he never gave it any beans? He just revved it a bit.
I suspect it's because if he did, he would have been catapuled into the nearest tree. I doubt it has much traction or stability at speed?

I think the speedo only ever read 0kph also so you can't tell was only doing 20kph...
There is no replacement for displacement...

Along with some knee operations to get them into the riding position

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