Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

Utterly ludicrous!
Lining the nose-cone is three-inch layer of clear plastic bubble similar, in concept, to the wrap used for moving. It has individual, honey-combed air sacs. Because the wrap completely surrounds the entire nose-cone and interior of the car (including the instrument panel) it provides protection. Unlike an air-bag, however, "it is pre-inflated and already there to save your life," Zanis says.
No need for those gimmicky airbags, a bit of bubble wrap will do! Those foolish car designers obviously missed a trick there.
Specifications:
Curb Weight - 8,000 pounds
Speed - up to 200 mph
(LOL!)
Miles per charge - 300 and up
Passenger - one or two depending upon size of occupants
City Car Model - $21,000 After rebates the cost is $14,000*
Standard Model - $24,000 After rebates the cost is $16,000*

looks like 4 salt bins glued together, with a pr*ck inside
and as the claim of 200 MPH - he obviously not from this planet

If you detonated a small explosive device inside it, it would go 200mph... just in 5000 different directions...
Him and the Bullitt guy should get their heads together... who knows what lunacy they could create? And they'd probably spend the GDP of a small country in doing so...

Thanks. I just know I'm going to have one of those genuinely frightening dreams tonight - and that evil pyramid's going to be in it.  |

The thing I'm curious about is, is he genuinely being sincere and actually believes this?
I mean, does he actually think that a 1-seater vehicle weighing the same as a 7-seater 1927 Cadillac is a good thing, or is he desperately scrabbling for good selling points?
Well-intentioned "eccentric" or chancer? Tough one....

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |
