I love that car from the side on. It looks awsome. Then you get to the front. Oh no bug eyed monster. Urgh.

How do you get out if you roll it?
And how many īsports carsī have a top speed of 90mph??? Is it a sports car because its only got 2 seats?


Mr Whippy - 3/3/08 at 12:27 PM

Part funded by the government

So our taxes have been spent on developing an exclusive sports car for the rich, I see

Top speed is more or less irrelevant so long as it's above 70mph, it's how quick you get there IMO
By top speed most 7's would be pretty poor examples of sports cars if that was important.

It will be a monumental flop

Who ever can afford that thing will not give a monkeys about how much it costs to run a V8, their wifes will probably be driving the kids to school in some Range Rover tank.

No one is gong to buy it as all folk would say is 'sorry how fast did you say it went? that's a bit slow...my grans Fiesta goes faster than that!'

I like the Tesla Roadster more and it goes like sh1t of a stick. Same sort of range as well.
The Tesla doesn't have an exhaust at all....

When the car needs to accelerate or climb a hill it draws extra power from a bank of flux-capacitors aligned down the centre of the car.

they had to limit the speedo to 90 for obvious reasons ........

we all know speedo's read fast. So when you're doing 90mph you're really only doing low 80 mph.

When you get to 85mph the flux capacitor draws the 2.1 gigawatt of ......... oh never mind, just drive down a bit hill foot to the floor and see where you end up
