wow top speed 43, i wonder if u can make it go any faster ^^

put some nitrous on it

Fugly

thats asking to have a hayabusa engine put in it. rear wheel drive rear engined. i reckon you could wheelie it with some sticky tyres!!

Having driven in Punjab in India, you'd have to be a proper mad bastard to wanna drive a plastic car there. Seriously seriously wrong in the head

Still cost more than my gt!

I do agree with you here. It's apparently a safe car, but its made up of everything which makes a car unsafe!

A lecturer at uni told us a story about driving in India. Apparantly they don't like putting lights on at night because they think it'll drain the battery

U also get lorries with "BLOW HORN" written on the back when you want them to move over to the side to overtake them?

no airbags doesn't make it any safer just cheaper

Pull it back further.

probably the most cost effective new car you could ever buy, most normal new cars loose more than this one cost brand new just by driving them off the forecourt

Tata is supposed to be interested in buying Jaguar and Range Rover....

So if they do they'll be able to badge it as a Jaguar....if they wanted .

Think I saw that in the Top Gear mag..wasn't that the one that failed the safety test so they had the redesign it?

the story I read about this on pistonheads said the idea of this is to get people into a car rather than on mopeds. Apparently the boss at Tata had the idea after seeing lots of mopeds/scooters driving around with families of five people sat on each one, this has to be safer than that. Although tree-huggers are saying that this will lead to even more pollution.

Its got 33bhp how does it only do 43mph

The GFs polo has 44bhp and does 95mph lol

What size tyres has that thing got on it 105/75/9

Thats crazy thi, threre is a garage round here that sells them little pastic cars with motobike engines in, ones up for £9995, how the hell does that work!

I believe it is limited to 70km/h because the shit quality/cheapness of things like wheel bearings etc... aren't up to handling higher speeds.

I think the tyres are supplied by Corgi and Matel, see your local toy store for stock information.

Scalectrix also do slicks for when you take it to a track day.

As in the story though, it's got to be safer than 5 people on a moped. I'd guess the reason it only does 40mph is that it ahsn't got many gears.
