http://www.rotax.com/en/Engine/2004/ATV ... Models.htm saw one of these on the road, then discovered you can buy the motor/box combo outright... and it's got a real reverse gear... anyone considered one? would the vee-twin be too big? |

Too small more like it. Only 78kw, what would the point be? |

If you went for a superlightweight car (stripped out shell, remove everything not required for going, stopping and steering) and you'd have something pretty nice. Weight balance would be better and best of all, the SOUND! Do it. |
