Lol, an invacar!

Supposidly none of those left......they were all owned by the government and were recalled and crushed in 2003 (wonder what bunch of tossers decided on that).

Surprisingly nippy with such a silly light body with a 500 or 600cc engine and upto 20 bhp....rated at 60mph top speed!

There used to be one local-ish to us, and the owner presumably had back problems and his car was converted so he could drive his standing up!!  :o  :o  :o
Now that car DID roll on corners. You must've taken your life into your own hands every time you took to the road in one, especially stood up!  :y

Certainly took the attention away from the Laguna!!!!

Reminds me of the MP's expenses scandal, it has been the best cure for pig flu ever, not a word about pig flu since the expenses story broke.

BBM, I've had a couple of these newer Lagunas so if you get stuck on anything give me a shout, I might have come across the same questions you have about the Laguna. Laguna owners forum not a patch on this one.
