Do you have to dress like Robocop to drive it.

Whuup em' Buck Beedy beedy beedy.

I'm with the Scorpion brigade on this one, still stylish after a fair number of years of production.

Well, I went along and had a look. Quite an interesting beast, although a little tough to get into, and limited head room (although there is a "tallman" option, to reduce the problems).

Looks like it would be a bit of a hoot to drive, although it is very exposed, and surprisingly wide!

I first came across the T-Rex some 3 or 4 years ago. I thought it was great. I then thought of importing them to the UK and Europe, and felt I needed to contact the campany to discuss a deal with them.

Then I discovered the price. I have no idea what the margin might be, but finding buyers at that sort of price will not be easy. So basing a business around importing them wouldn't be a clever route to take.

Ah yes! - The screen - that's a new one on me - didn't think it had one.

Stupidly over-priced. No way will it sell over 30 at most. *prepares to eat words*
