Out of interest, There was a photo in 'Old Glory' of the Modelworks 'Likamobile' (.....looks like their demonstrator) at a rally in Nothern Ireland. Sadly both the back stub axles had sheared, resulting in both back wheels falling off. This must be something of a worry to anyone building one of the kits.......  |

Just the sort of publicity they could do without!  |

I understand that Modelworks got the design for this vehicle from a member of MESNI, Mr Eric Hughes who, quite rightly, gets a royalty for every example sold. His car is very reliable, robust and well used and I can't imagine it collapsing so I think that the one you mention must be their demonstrator! I have ridden on Eric's car and it has amazing acceleration and seems very responsive despite only having tiller steering. Eric tears around everywhere on it, his is called 'Freddy'.
Cheers
