The sad reality of it is unless some seriously-mental-super-rich person comes along and fancies throwing a few billion into the air- the soonest you will see this in further detail will be on a game somewhere

still, theres that 1% chance there guys, feel lucky?

heck I'd visit if they made it biggrin

Good PR job. Sound concept, but floating cities pretty much covers anything you can do with something big and...erm...floaty.

How about a big, floating bust (head, not moobs!) of Bernie...floating endlessly around the seas promoting F1...

Monday morning and already we have a winner for the "Pistonheads totally pointless Story of the Week" article.

My daughter drew a picture of a car last week, when I asked her about it she said it was a 'new kind of electric car that would run for ever without needing recharging'. Would you like it sent over so that you can make an article about it? Or should I send it straight to 'Autocar'.....?
Ha ha ha, brilliant! Send it in!

Is the the maritime version of "doing a one-77" as it's called in the automotive world? i.e. whilst the whole world falls down around you, energy costs soar, Co2 doom mongers gather their forces, and most companies batten down the hatches, you say "F**k it, lets build something really, really expensive" and just hope someone, anyone, buys one? ;-)
Hasn't the fashion industry been doing this for decades?!?

A scalextric track in the studio would confuse Legard.

Somehow I can't see the type of people with enough money to keep this kind of thing runing wanting to go carting. Nice concept, not a good thing to build.

Also, apparently he is off the F1 team.
Yeah it would be like taking the Concorde concept of supersonic flight and making a supersonic Americal Mega Bowl cum Frankie and Benny's smile

A scaled down version of Monaco for Karting sounds pretty inspired to me. You can keep the boat.

You'll be wanting a 'Wally Yacht' then. Great piece of kit but basically a floating cock.

Anyway thanks PH I was looking for a new launch for my yacht.
