Re: Small Cars
Those things do look good but something is telling me if I was ever in an accident in one of those, I'd get completly squashed together and probably not survive.

Re: Small Cars
Theres an even smaller street legal car here (134cm long)

Or this one thats 5 millimetres long
http://www.cnn.com/TECH/9711/22/micro.car/
The whole car is no more than 4 nanometers across. That's slightly wider than a strand of DNA. A human hair is about 80,000 nanometers thick.

Re: Small Cars
A few years ago on 'Top Gear' I think was a piece about a man who built a scale replica of a Ferrari (Around a foot long, but could be more), that was purfect in every detail such that if it wirked on the real car it worked on the scale model.
It has ignition key, lights and a working petrol engine / gear box & this worked.
can any body remeber this and perhaps know if there is anything on line, r has the article that can perhaps be uploaded.

Re: Small Cars
The 4x4 lookalike looks like a roller skate!
