Yep, these rolled a bit, especially in a Monty Python sketch if I remember correctly ;-) [nt]

This a fascinating vehicle...the Polaris Slingshot!
Not sure how it drives, but I'm sure it is exhillerating. Light weight and nimble for sure, wonder how a three wheeler corners? Anyone have experience in one of these? Cheers, Tim ...
Ah yes, that old friend!
Still, love to hear from anyone who has driven a 3 wheeler, very curious... Cheers and thanks for this reminder, Tim
I’ve driven one ...
The Morgan... great fun up to a certain limit then things can get very scary 😮... The Caterham is a much better handling car if your in a hurry.
We shall see...maybe a test drive is in order.
We have the right weather here! Cheers, Tim
It's not very dignified (not as much as you are)
I've seen a number of them but never driven one of those. I have driven a Morgan and been terrified to death by a ride in a 2CV-based 3-wheeler called the Lomax. One bad thing you can't dodge speed bumps or potholes because one of the 3 wheels is bound to...
Wow, that looks worryingly dodgy as my Dad would say!

Tim, saw one on Sunday - it was a bit scary

A good friend of mine had on for 3 years, during which time I had the pleasure of putting a hundred or so miles on it. First impression was that it was not a nimble as a bike ( which is good, neither am I anymore), and not as stable as a 4 wheeler. It sit...
thanks WOJO!
Appreciate the in depth analysis from a driver of one of these things. Cheers, Tim
I think it’s a handfull when you push it.
Go to Youtube and search: MAX WRIST SLINGSHOT there you can see him having an accident with the Polaris. Bim
Tried last year! Nice one
I tried it last year in the hills of South Carolina, is not fast as it looks but it’s very funny and corners very well, I would definitely buy one for a Sunday drive instead of a bike Cheers F ...
