I'm working on a rocket & turbine powered car.......

It's off for an MOT next week, after which I'll pop the old girl in the classifieds.

About £3500 with an MOT

I'd consider a swap for something interesting however.
Like a tidy 944.

Won't the number plates fall off if you go too fast

To say the VW was Hitler's revenge was a bit of a joke, but this thing is no joke.

TOJO is still laughing.

Holy batmobile of a thread update


I only went & bought one just before Christmas.

So here it is as acquired, from a PH'er too, alongside my Lupo 3L (another uber eco machine & what was its competitor back in the day).



It's just had a polish up & a bit of TLC over the past few days & I must say it's in good nic for its age. I fixed the fault with it not charging the battery correctly too. Just some rear shocks to fit next week before I go anywhere again. So I've yet to take it for a good run, the quick post fix 30m run I did do it managed 82mpg without trying. It might be getting a run to Germany next week for a quick ski trip.

Post polish & fettling

How does it compare to the 3L Lupo?

I do wish the Insight has those extra seats!

It came like that! It might be getting a slightly small sticky instead, being an import there is no number plate bracket.
