Agree fantasic car,

However with only 7 people work in the WHOLE company, just think how many cars they must turn out a year....

fantastic vehicle, but you'll look stupid driving one IMO, no matter how fast you're going.

IIRC, it's a former lecturer and student from my university who designed the car, they've done wonders IMO
