The Carchat

A collaborative space for automotive insight
Jun 30

I would quite like a Gordon Murray T25.

I know I'm fickle - just the other day I was loving the Juke, but this little baby has got me all excited. Aside from the back end looking like the design chaps got bored, went home and left the work experience kid to tidy everything up, it's a pretty smart little car.

And you could even close your eyes (possibly not whilst driving) and imagine you're in a McLaren F1, what with that 3-seat layout and fancy cockpit.

Unfortunately, I doubt anyone will buy one - why look like a twat in an unknown brand's car when you can spend £60,000 and look like a twat in an Aston Martin Cygnet? Or why not get a MINI, or a Smart, or a Toyota iQ? And legitimate concerns have been raised already about opening the door in the rain. But I don't even leave the house in the rain, so that's OK.
