My next 4x4?

I rather like the look of this.  Top marks on the name...  Hope it makes it into production without too many changes!

But I don't think I could afford one.

I've seen one of these on the road just coming out of the
Motor Industry Research Asociation (MIRA) on the A5 between
Tamworth and Hinckley, It looked quite strange having the
driving position in the middle, It wasn't hanging about on the
road and the driver looked like he was having great fun. :D

Is that a Keel I see or a new type of Diff guard.

These guys had a stand tucked away in a dark corner of the Birmingham motor show! As said earlier, it is enormous and it has to be said, a tad superfluous (is that spealt correctly???!).

The car they sell is even stranger. A modern version of the Amphicar.... anyone remember that? That was a total disaster and I suspect these will go the same way.
