I think these little motors are Brilliant, had a test drive in one last year, I was very very surprised with the performance, Ive told the Mrs we're changing her car for one of these next year hopefully.....

They are cracking little cars, brilliant in the summer but not so good in winter, you find yourself wheel spinning in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. Would keep it but need 4 doors and 5 seats, the type r is only a 4 seater car !!!!

Never seen inside one before. Is that really the gearstick? Looks silly. Does it work like a normal stick?

I brought one of these pocket rockets for my wife and there a very quick and good car to drive.

The gear stick is in the most natural position you could drive a car,it looks very odd but it does make alot of sence.

I agree, when I first got in, I thought I was in my Merc Sprinter ...

yeah, fantastic gearbox on these cars probably one of the best you will find around, thought it would take a while getting used to the stick on the dash but it is really natural !!!
