This looks like one of those 'cars of the future'...

It is a very interesting machine. I'd like to see if it actually makes it to production.

I would just use hand warmers and such to stay warm if I got it. It looks like a fun car to drive.

Whyzman,
I thought you Minnesotans liked the cold, anyone who puts a shack out on a frozen lake and cuts a hole in the ice to go fishing in that climate must like it just a little.

:D :D

No doubt, I'd look at bit odd to the "fair weather friends" as I did this morning taking the trash out in my T-shirt. We're equipped for the cold, but sitting still for "too long" will eventually gettcha! In a car with no heat...not good!! In a fishing house with a heater...saweet...here fishy fishy fishy!! :D:D

I would bet if it comes out it would not have the fender scerts. No place to show off spinner hub caps LOL.

Oh, you don't put spinners on Morgan cars.
:D
You shouldn't put them on minivans either.

I wonder if it will be like the first Aeromax, which looked rather similar. That was cross eyed!

Looks like something from the old sci-fi Tron, actually.

I wondered where they would put the kids, animals, and groceries but if you have those, you can't afford the car.

Only real problem is the price. £850,000

Sweet lookin' machine David, but when I clicked on the thumbnail of the deep burgandy looking one the driver inside is wearing a racing helmet. Since I haven't yet succumbed to folicle fallout, and I'm not into today's pigskin doos, I wouldn't want to be sporting "helmet hair" whenever I stepped out of the dream machine... :(

You not need a helmet to drive that car whyzman. It actually complies with all the legislation on emissions, noise, and safety! Even does 11.7 Miles per gallon (but not at top speed!)

isn't that slightly better than the H1 hummer?
My jeep can go off road, and gets 110MPG (miles per gallon.) not a measly 11.7.

And its got FOUR WHEEL DRIVE!!!!
needed in the snow!

I would, but then again, I am just about crazy enough to make anything work, or at least try once... (on the minivan)

In Minnesota...spinners are illegal... I suspect they are in a number of states by now.

They're projecting $4.00 per gallon gas by this summer...I'm for style and economy!
