    One of the coolest things about riding along with Jonny, is that we have no clue what the vehicle will be. The variety is always interesting, but the ENTHUSIASM keeps us coming back. I hope Jonny loves doing these as much as we love watching... 🎉

    And you know, I had one of those in the sixties. Fanny and I would often go down the A1, with Fanny screaming loudly in my ear to go faster and drive it harder and harder. Sometimes Fannie’s scarf would get entangled in the wheels and choke her until she was blue, and you know what, I bloody well drove it harder and harder. Different times, different times.

    To make something like this takes a small army of skilled people at the top of their game that's never going to be cheap!
    I think £100k is probably justified with the amount of money already spent on tooling and the designwork.

  • @Stuntman175
    @Stuntman175 Місяць тому +2

    Honestly for me, this and the Carice TC2 are the future of urban mobility. We need to start ditching those 2 ton SUV's and fill the city streets with electric vehicles like these.
    All of the materials used to build a single Tesla Model X or the new Hummer EV would almost be enough to build 4 or 5 of these. If the automotive conglomerate in Europe/US/Japan wants to compete against China in terms of adoption/acquisition of EV's, they have to go small in size and increase production volume to lower overall costs but unfortunately, they think that they can keep afloat selling their overpriced junk against China's underpriced junk.
    There is absolutely no excuse other than "but, but, my profit margin..." to build small, efficient and especially affordable electric cars these days. Most of the world's population lives in cities, there is no need for a vehicle that is larger than the place it drives in. It's a lot easier and cheaper for the manufacturers to make smaller cars than it is for governments to build wider roads, but it's also easier to just foot the bill upon the tax payer than it is to give it to the multi-billion Euro/Dollar/Yen auto corporations. Those have banks, lawyers, lobbyists and governments on their side, we don't.

    Let's be honest here, it's frickin awesome. A rich person's toy true but still awesome. It really is a pity that any re engineered old car is so expensive. We need the old kit cars back !

    I love the concept. I could see them taking off (not down a cliff either). It looks fun. Could we have a Williams F1 Hill version next please.

    What a beauty...
    In a way it describes the current English car makers of today, odd, very expensive, impractical and too short range for an EV, but that shot of it pulling out of a mews garage makes it all worth it...

    12:38 Shower hose rear light cluster "cable ducts"! It's like trying to spot the kitchen appliances in a sci-fi set :D I love it and I applaud that it exists. But that did make me giggle.

    As much as I respect the work that went into this, and love the idea of it - It needs to make some NOISE! It's like putting together the best Metallica tribute band in the world, then taking away their microphones and instruments.

    Back in my days I had one of these, but without silly seatbelts, we took thick gilfriends instead of airbags.
    There was no elecrticity In my ancesters castle so poor old George had to charge my little Junior with a balloon and wool fabric for a whole week, great, great times!

    I think it's a great piece of kit.
    It's not going to replace a Yaris et al, but it's fun, looks close enough ( apart from those seatbelt posts but you can't get round that) and its off the scale interesting compared to most other city cars.
    I'm not an EV fan but one of those could turn me.
    Jonny, you should do a film on CycleKarts, it's a blossoming movement over here of people playing with single seat, scaled down vintage racers, they are epic fun.

  • @andrewdavid6054

    I love it, the craftmanship is excellent. But I feel like they could have done something to change the mandatory EV hum to something else. At least the horn is correct. I feel like the masts holding the seatbelts are a bit optimistic too, unless they're also supposed to act as rollover protection? But you're right, a rollover hoop might not be authentic but it would look more symmetrical and purposeful.
