    Aquacar!

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/3077508.stm

    British engineering at its... strangest.

    If you fancy picking one up to beat the traffic, it's £150,000, t'ankyou guv.

    In the photo it looks like a tarted up Opel/Vauxhall/Chevy Corsa - it can't be, can it?

    Fair point.

    How could the guy, when his sole purpose (aside from dodgy politics and family life) is to consume the global supply of Chivas Regal?

    I think perhaps I speak from the point of envy.



    But you'd think he could get a freakin' driver with some of that mountain of cash they have. I guess the world was a different place back then.
