A guy throws you the keys are you going to turn around then throw them back saying eh...?


Let's face it a guy could throw me the keys of a Mini Metro and I wouldn't throw them back

Saw it in the flesh today at Autosport (show car only though).

Would have to say that it was a very nice looking vehicle, and far more comparable to the Radicals than the others. One thing that I was particularly impressed with was the finish. The pearlescent paint was very well done.
But... they certianly dropped the ball on the steering column to dash mounting. It was a chunk of wood. Not painted, not hidden, just plain old pine with coupla 'oles drilled through it. I know it's not exactly finished, but this was inexcusable in my opinion.

I really wish them all the best, as this car has some great potential.
