Seems to have aimed it at one a particular market already
"CARGO - Lockable rear compartment can carry up to 50 litres. Ideal for personal shopping or business use e.g. Paramedics, express couriers (Fedex®, UPS®, DHL®, DPD®) or food delivery (Amazon Prime®, UberEATS®, Deliveroo®, Foodora®). Custom design body skins available (ideal for company fleet purchase)."

Would a whole paramedic fit in a 50 litre cargo compartment?

Sir Clive has produced kit model calculators, cheap stereo amplifiers, personal computers, and the C5. What makes anybody think that this latest offering won't be utter shite like the rest of his stuff?

The ZX Spectrum was awesome... and i reckon it lasted me a lot longer than any computer I've had since.

...anyhoo... isn't this Clive's nephew?

You are absolutely correct. I apologise, but not to Sir Clive.

No guarantee even though it's not Sir Clive this time.

I like the concept, 3 wheels with 2 steering and 1 driven is a good setup, now what it needs is a wider track for better stability and a bigger motor.

Some serious problems with them, including

Where do you park them at your home to charge them and or where do you park them at your destination ( and or charge them)

Not a lot different to a velomobile. If you dont have the space, you dont buy one.

Get some decent power into that back wheel and you could manage some wicked drifts.

I remember watching Morgan 3 wheelers racing at a vintage car meeting at Silverstone

The ZX81was well ahead of it's time, it was even used as the console for a time travelling machine in the SF drama "Flipside of Dominic Hyde".
Anybody old enough to remember?

Are you really and absurdly claiming that pointing out the legality of the vehicle is a thread diversion!!!!!!!!!!!!

You must be going apoplectic about the computers

IIRC the space shuttle computer was not much bigger... or that could be a myth

You could, just for once, consider putting a sock in it.
