Good fun actually. But while there are a load over here who uses one anymore? Nick and Marcus certainly did. Seems that the Czechs will pay to repatriate them. Another car that is no longer cheap, though it is cheaper than many and more usable.

Looks like a lot of money for something that the seller describes as 75% complete and that's isn't UK registered. I guess it depends on what makes up that missing 25% and how easy it is to replace and how good the suppporting documentation is. I'm always surprised that with our enormous postwar motorcycle industry, there weren't several UK fabric-bodied microcars.
