View Full Version : Wooden Supercar.
I would love to own and drive this car. Just hope know one would set fire to it.
Joke aside, I think its as good as the idea as that french car that runs on compressed air. :)

Wouldnt want to crash in it, not at 240mph anyway.
"Sorry, I can't make the meeting this weekend - my car is at the joiners getting some work done"
I would have a heart attack if I saw one of the nails coming out

absolutely ridiculous!

That would actually look quite good if it wasn't made out out of wood. But seeing as it is you wouldn't see me getting in it.
I think wood would make a pretty good crumple zone TBH.
Not sure how good the firewall is going to be though!!

tee hee, forget air bags. Most be quite a thrill driving one knowing that in a crash its bye bye life :) good car for a vampire to suicide in - the only one. ;)
:rolleyes: Students eh?
LOL yeah, must be fun though, even its its not real world viable.

Hahahaha. I smell creosote.

You'd be screwed. Or nailed. Bet jesus would have gone for one of these cars what with being a carpenter and all that. Imagine him around bethlehem, going around preaching with one of these. I'd buy some sandals if I ever had this car.
absolutely ridiculous!
LOL.. looks good though - even better than the supe, and that yellow car from the transformers movie.

Yeah. I can see the paint fading every year so you have to paint it the same time as your shed. Its a bit flintstone like, if you needed a bonnet vent for the uk spec version just find out where a big knot is and puch it through. :)

Tee hee. the sound of a splitting tree in a crash, rather that the horrible metal impact sound of a traditional crash. Maybe they should have made the windsreen from cleaned amber. :)

You would have to be "barking" mad to own one...
Good to see F1 technology being passed on.
Heres where it all started.
