Pretty sure they're not road legal anymore.

Lol, an invacar!

Supposidly none of those left......they were all owned by the government and were recalled and crushed in 2003 (wonder what bunch of tossers decided on that).

Surprisingly nippy with such a silly light body with a 500 or 600cc engine and upto 20 bhp....rated at 60mph top speed!


Did you ever see them going around bends, and especially in high winds Mark? :-? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)


yeh....great fun!

Imagine getting one and tinkering with it.....dress up as some old man and annoy BMW drivers at traffic lights, fantatsic!


What....fit a V6 into one?  What a cool thought......providing it had a forth wheel as well! ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

There used to be one local-ish to us, and the owner presumably had back problems and his car was converted so he could drive his standing up!!  :o  :o  :o
Now that car DID roll on corners. You must've taken your life into your own hands every time you took to the road in one, especially stood up!  :y

Certainly took the attention away from the Laguna!!!!

Reminds me of the MP's expenses scandal, it has been the best cure for pig flu ever, not a word about pig flu since the expenses story broke.

BBM, I've had a couple of these newer Lagunas so if you get stuck on anything give me a shout, I might have come across the same questions you have about the Laguna. Laguna owners forum not a patch on this one.
