Screw passengers and luggage, it's all about the andling. Would prolly make a better Italian Job than the Minis. 
I'd ask BA his opinion, but he doesn't seem to be posting.

You know you'd like to lean into those turns, young Master Tabbsy.
i still want room for a passenger or two, and some luggage.
Golf cart?? Not a bad idea. Could use solar/wind electric generators to recharge them. No emissions from the cart.

Comrade hates emissions. Comrade would have to run this motorcycle-leaner thingie on something like alcohol, or something. 
No worries, Comrade's Bianchi arrives this week. :)
I believe I left it in Sheddie's decolletage. I suppose I should have her 'round so's I can retrieve it. And pour some shampanya, of course. :)
From Little Red Book, section on internet dating:
"It is absolutely necessary to abstain from bourgeois concerns about 'ability to carry passangers' in an automobile if the automobile in question looks like a go-cart."
"The woman you choose to pursue can only be impressed with your desire to maintain the health of the planet and your efforts to shun aesthetic beauty in automobile design for a certain childish innocence."
"Four wheels? Pah, an imposition upon the already overworked auto workers. Three will suffice, so long as you maintain equilibrium in the main compartment."

Or 'round here, the shampaniate of the proletariat. :D
Comrade, Forget about the EPA. . .emisions shimisions. Wonder how it would react to a Pontiac 455 with 460 HP, 480 in torque. Bet you could beat that person to the last parking space with no problems.

Don't need the last parking space with my Bianchi. :)
Don't need to pay $4 for a gallon of gas, either. :)
And the Polar Bears will love me for it (as long as they don't love me with Brown Sauce).

Yeah it would, as long as it had enough power to it. 60mph doesn't sound like much since it is so light. Needs a real engine in it to do it for me, something to really move.
By the way, fully aware of Bianchi. I'm a mountian biker myself. Have a K2 Zed 5.0 (a strong bike, but K2 only made bikes for a few years). Disc brakes, and the Shimano Deora XT gears and such. Fun stuff.

It's so small, it doesn't need much. It's not a highway cruiser, just a city-car. At that size, in narrow city streets, and with it's speed and handling, it would be hella fun. if not, there are always upgrades. :)

I don't know that model, but top-notch gear you have on it.

Although I will have an excuse.

Methinks it is time for a vacation.
This isnt anything new as this was on Top Gear a couple of years ago and looks top bollox fun to me.
