I would quite happily walk home with this under my arm

Always fancied a Bond Bug but this has to be the ultimate

Think this might be the same car. Crap footage but gives an idea of speed.....oh and that sound

Surely that would take off!! Or go everywhere on the back wheels!!

Great grin factor though!

I wonder what the brakes are like...............

I had/restored a Bond Bug a few years ago - defo got to get another and put a decent engine in, as the reliant ones are so un-reliable!!
Crowds wait for you to drive off at the supermarket, but was showing off to some kids on a corner in mine, and got up on 2 wheels and nearly hit the milkman.

Hayabusa motors are good for 180+bhp, but with a turbo, must be 250bhp? Gary Rothwells turbo'd and nitros'd stunt bike was sticking out about 325bhp. That's a lot of bhp per ton. A standard Hayabusa can do 9.9 quarters. A Bond Bug must weigh about the same as a pair of slippers! But I'd want two wheels at the front a.k.a. Morgan three wheeler...
