Elitist, you are wrong. I think what you meant is that the Europeans can’t import a car cheaply enough to make it cheap by the time it’s on sale in Australia. It’s actually Australia’s fault, not Europe’s.
And you didn’t say it, you wrote it. If you did say, I’m sure that anybody else in the room at the time was slightly confused.

30K? I was thinking this should be in the 20K price range. Unless it packs leather, satnav, climate and all that sort of stuff, you’d be getting an econobox with a badge. Ridiculous.

There has been a few electric car articles on here lately so I won’t repeat myself. But in my opinion at the moment electric cars are a dumb idea.

Yianni, it really doesn’t need to be affordable. It probably will be but it will sell regardless. I predict a starting price of about $30,000. I’d buy one. The BMW that is.
Those are terrible mock ups! The headlights are off the 500 and the side windows are off the Ka.

Ughhh. I’m disgusted. Looks as bad as the Proton Savvy. Well, maybe a bit better than the Savvy. Horses for courses I guess…

I want one……….its sooooooooooooo cuuuuuuuuuute !

Funny how like the original one this to is coming from Italy heritage .

Glad they dont have the door opening out the front like the original. Was the Isetta the first of the micro cars made ? From what I found it was .

The originals look soooooooooo weird !
