Been thinking about visiting, only £4 for an adult and, I think, about 50 vehicles on show.

looks an isolated spot, about 120 miles away from me, I actually owned a bubble car once!

Of course, they are massively expensive now and really not suitable for the roads these days

Nevertheless, micro cars - as they call them, are fascinsting vehicles and fun to be in/drive.

Except giving you a great mpg I cant see any other benefit for driving one of these cos you still have to deal with the issue of finding a parking space and get stock in traffic. However bikes give you loads of freedom. You never get stuck in traffic jams and you never have an issue with parking. But it rains on you at times and you get soaked and feel cold.

they are just something from a certain era, inappropriate now for sure.


i had one like this, and my mate had one of these

but that was ages ago, around 1969 - before you lot were born probably

Ahhh they,re so cute but that picture proves my point that the little car still takes a big space for parking.

They were a great idea. Look around now and there are loads of micro cars on the roads.

One way of reducing traffic at rush hour is probably forcing people to commute to work in micro cars only or use public transport.

He won,t even fit in one of those.

I meant as a fleet-buyer.

motorbikes are one thing, generally quick and nimble but micro cars on todays roads with all those monster jeep things i was talking about in another post, no - don't fancy it. although, having said that, one of our girls has an old 2000 reg micra and that's great fun to drive, bit like a go kart.

I feel much safer on my bike than being in one of those micro cars but they,re ok for running around in town. Not a good idea to use them on motorways.

We still have small cars now. Look at Rome and its full of smart cars. Power to the small cars!!
