    What is the point of having a tank of nitro on the back of an ELECTRIC car? The twike looks cool anyway, no need to mod it at all, most of the normal mods would either look weird or drain the batteries/reduce the range.

    You're right, it would drain the battery even moreso and leave you with a shorter range.

    And yes, it looks FAR from normal, but once you have one for a while you realise how strange mods would look on it, but the looks you get from people/other drivers are priceless. :D

    When the time comes, get into contact with me (PM me and I'll let you know how) and we'll sort something out. :)

    UPDATE: Camera should be going for development in the next few days.

    That's because there isn't one. :D The steering is powered by your thoughts. :p

    Nah, it's a stick in the middle of the Twike that has three buttons on it, Accelerator, Deccelerator, Indicators.

    There is also a stick on the side of the Twike that acts as the handbrake, with Wipers, High-beams, Horn. In addition to this brake there is a pedal in front of the driver.

    MUCH easier to drive than a car.

    PICCIES HAVE ARRIVED!!!

    That ain't a cooper! That's an original Mini Equinox, really old thing belonging to my mum. And that guy in the Twike would be me. :D

    That's a Twike Easy (without pedals) and I think Ralph Schneider (guy who invented Twikes) got the idea from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy TV series. :D

    I don't blame ya Nic, Twikes are really cool. :D

    Matt, they may not look 'conventional' but you should think of the other things that apply, such as:

    Very low insurance
    Free M.O.T.
    No Road Tax
    No Congestion Charges
    No Petrol
    Minimal addition to your electric bill
    No pollution
    No noise pollution (they're virtually silent)
