The BMW MG6 looks far better
The BMW MG6 looks far better than the real things and a darn sight cheaper!
I like the Twizzy, it looks great fun and I look forward to having a go in one, however Nissan are spot on developing a fully inclosed one on the same chassis, as the Twizzy looks a real nightmare to live with in winter..

This thing is nothing but a joke
Like the fully enclosed bit,
