I agree,

Except for:

The chav looking wheels on a couple of them.

No cycle wings/arches. Not too much of an issue unless IVA failure ??? I don't know, but feel there could be an issue.

Yup, some cycle wings will be needed. I wonder if it ever will come to production :suspect:

Posted

Certainly different.

I really like :)

With a set of Arches it'll look naff I reckon

I agree, but would be required... Maybe discreet ones that are black cycle wings that really huge the wheels.

IVA aside do you need arches to be road legal / pass an MoT? I assume so. The 50's GP look is cool though.

Would it be a "as vehicle designed" type loop hole?

But this is what I first thought may not have arches. They have what I suggested though.

I like that general style (reminds me a lot of the Morgan 3 wheeler), but not sure I like some of the details on it: for example, the tank (?) strapped to the side makes it look unbalanced, and I don't really fancy burning my elbow on that exhaust...

 

I doubt I could do better though.

Posted

Yeah, the tank has to go, I would have it at the rear and some rerouting on that exhaust!

Posted

The exhaust in that position is essential to the GP look

Not my elbow i'd be bothered about it my b*****k* getting in and out !!!

Steve D can provide you with a mankini.  Will solve any such issues.

Good idea, Dragon's Den here I come.

I think it looks fantastic as it is. Hope it gets produced and for an affordable figure...
