Wow, that's different. I bet some version of it will end up in the European market, first, though. Right away I thought about the English Mini, Hillman, Morris ...whatever.

I had a '69 Ford Fiesta Sport, which was a terrific little car, ......until it was time to swap out the water pump. :rolleyes:

It looks like a boring little car, w/ a kind of cool trunk idea.

It should fit right in puttering around Europe.

Now the Mini's......THAT's a sharp European car :up:

You should have seen me trying one of 'em on at the Washington Auto show, CAM DO last winter. We drew quite a crowd, when Charlie and friends had to help me take the damned thing off. :D

It was shown in 1999 in Tokyo. Too bad they did not build it. Maybe they will come out with something similar but better.

Does the word "Deathtrap" come to mind?? :rolleyes: This is billed as an urban vehicle for tooling around in the city and finding parking spaces. However, out on the highway .... or the Autobahn .... or the Autostrade, these things would be rolling roadblocks. No thanks. :(

Hey Mike, I was quite surprised at the room inside the Mini-Cooper S that George and I sat in. Quite deceptive and the "hand pump" for adjusting the seat height was kinda neat. Unfortunately, I was afraid that if I moved my left foot ... I might have kicked out one of the headlights. :rofl:

They should strech this car out. I bet it will probably sell here.
