Right? This thing looks to be about perfect for laugh-your-ass-off Farmkhana. Don’t try to daily it, don’t put it next to more of its kind on some kind of track, and don’t take it off any sick jumps. Do go sideways as much as possible on slippery, flat, private land.
Star for Mochet history. I wanted to build a Velocar replica back in my custom bicycle days in high school and nowadays if I were to do a replica of a motorized one it looks like there’s at least an extra foot of rear track to be had.
You’re all wrong, even Daniel. New cars are cool. Old cars are cool. The trouble with a new-ish car is that they’re still on their way down into that pit of not-new-but-not-old uncoolness. A new car gets less new daily while an old car remains old forever.
Torch, did you ever get the T out of low speed? Dropping it into high probably would have helped keep it cool, I know mine doesn’t like dragging along in low for any length of time.
So to review: they put all that effort into designing a snazzy prow, but forget some places need a spot to jam a license plate. Got it.
It’s a beautiful piece of “Fuck you, I’m rich.” I mean that, I really really like it. If I had a job throwing a ball really good for a living or something like that I’d be putting my name in for one.
I was in the back seat of a Beetle once and that was cramped enough. Don’t judge - she was cute!
Holy crap, the TT DOES have a back seat! Well today I learned something.
The Audi TT is just a sexy Golf, it better run forever!
A camper van with a spare driver sleeping on board. I figure the only hope that an electric car has of an overall win is either lightning fast pits or no pits at all.
Seat’s press release on this thing claims 420 km of range
I don’t see how buying a used E-class is more financially savvy than, say, a new Camry.
I can only hope his Land Rover was on fire in the background, as one might expect it to be the second the warranty expired.
With this guy’s money, there could well be a helicopter following to airlift tires into place.
There’s enough space enclosed under the hood(?) that he could just as easily have a wheel crane that unfolds from within...
So what’s the feasibility of some ridiculously wealthy eccentric going up and capturing this thing just to bring home and show off? I’m looking at you, Elon.
Watched video, wanted Mochet, researched what it would take to build a replica, decided that would be a good idea, saw pic of rolled Mochet, decided that would be a bad idea.
