A single-seater with two doors, of which one is a folding gull-wing, and equipped with either three or five wheels, depending upon how one wishes to count.  I am quite fond of these.

Fair enough.  The dynamic wheel count could extend all the way down to zero (inclusive).

Crumbs does that hit the road too. Its a clever trick. Maybe its the one that they forgot to put the hardener in the bodyshell. All blibberly with wheels going everywhere. Like driving a jelly. Yes, half of you quite like the idea of a jelly car you raving nutters. Rum flavoured of course.
