Yup, that's a PPG. With that low-set fuel tank, for a minute I thought it was one of ours (my old employer's, that is) but I don't recognise that fanguard or that horrible engine note. The dude's ground-handling is awful; to be honest I'm surprised he made it as far as running into the van...

W0w, that fastback is gorgeous! Shame it's so expensive - but I guess that's what quality costs.

Holy mother of God...

Have it your way, by all means. Regrettably, I am rather starved for modern handbeaten cars to compare to the 550; if you know a better series-production vehicle than the Kirkham with a hand-beaten body do let me know how much it costs! Individual vehicles - especially Ferraris - don't count; one is not the same as…

No, it really isn't simple economics. The history of how hard it was to make the car is irrelevant, and seeing as they appear to have set the price without actually selling any yet, so is your assertion that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I concur. Putting attractive people around consumer products means that the marketer wants me to conclude that the product will help me attract such people, or that I aspire to be such a person.

The comedy scale was by far the best bit of that. Apparently the IRIAF will be recruiting exclusively from circuses and kindergartens for the next thirty years or so.

Definitely not - there's no panel gap in middle of the flare for part of it to open, and no panel gap around the rear of it for it to separate from the wing. Even if it did come away with the door, you don't see a problem with a door that's five feet wide when opened?

Englishman. Came here to say WTF ARE THESE OVERSTYLED MONSTROSITIES, Caterham?! Let's be remembered for inventing things that were actually achievements, not tragedies!

The sentence makes no sense whatsoever. Even in corrected form, why would safe automobile tuning and driving pleasure be mutually exclusive in the first place?

Whatever the opposite of 'interesting' and 'informed' is, you are it. 'Experimental' in this context is a technical term applied by the FAA; most of the aircraft at the fly-in are plans/kit-built and no more 'experimental' than a Caterham or pasta sauce, for that matter. More thought goes into the design and…

*Whooooosh*

I used to work for Parajet, and don't be fooled - the SkyCar's not even the maddest thing they were working on when I was there. What a truly excellent company.

Yes... But Cygnet.

Look at the wheels on the P71. I'm pretty sure I got a car out of a Kinder Egg once with those exact five-spokes.

I love the ass on it, it's gorgeous.

If we're talking ex-Suzuki Cappuccinos, I'd rather have one of these:

Qcarception?

What the hell is growing on the end of that dude's nose?!

The reason that one looks fast is it is fast; it has the drivetrain out of a 993 Porsche.
