Pretty random post here

I was down the supermarket earlier and heard that old engine noise - (probably a diesel), sounds like a tank, brings to mind a VW Caravan

but when I looked at what it was, I was shocked.

Probably one of the smallest cars I've ever seen on the road! The owner had a conversation with one of the car park attendants and I heard a 500cc engine

thrown in. I only thought electric cars had that kind of power?

Anyone know what car this is?

yes you can see the parking sensors on the model in the website,
and a honda petrol lawnmower is one cylinder and 7Bhp so your not far off with two mowers that would be 14hp so alomst the same lol
