There are two men in white coats at the door; I wonder what they want? ...

Great idea Ruairidh!

Now I get the rad thing. It is front wheel drive and the whole rad/engine/gearbox rotates.

Here is one running.

In the background there appears to be two more cyclecars. Now, would a V-twin JAP or Matchless engine fit?

Of course, a 2-stroke engine! The French tradition of cyclecars continues - the latest ones being pretty presentable - and no driving licience required (but they do use a diesel engine as found in concrete mixers, etc...).

Blimey! They're not cheap, you can buy two Dacia Sanderos for that sort of figure.

The reason why the "voiture sans permit" are so expensive is due to a perverse rule in France. If you get banned for whatever reason you can't drive a car, bus, lorry or motorbike, but you can still drive a sans permit or a 50cc scooter as no licence is required for either. Those recidivists that have a problem with the glass trumpet tend to go for the VSP because they are usually still drinking and have balance issues with a two wheeler. Stay well clear!

Exactly my first thought, too!

But if you have lost your licence you cannot drive them!
There is a similar effort in our village (Warwickshire!) but it is a Ligier... I imagine no relation to the driver of the same name!
