I guarantee they sell by the bucketload, despite the cost and the apparent stupidity of the concept.

Better buying a tractor instead. Cheaper and faster.

They are bloody expensive tho so I'd imagine it'll be the rich kids parents that foot the bill.

Actually, you have to be 17 to driver a Robin now - thought you could driver one at 16 once upon a time?

Think of the positives though, when you take your missus out to the playground she'd be able to do the driving for once.

The only positive is they are probably a bit safer than mopeds for the drivers.

Still doesnt take away the fact its basically a moped that will take up an entire lane meaning near enough impossible to get past on a two way carriageway with any sort of traffic on it.

People are going to get frustrated and perform dangerous overtaking manouvres, and even if youre meant to give the same room to a moped at least if it does get close you have the room to move in slightly.

Depends if theres shit loads or not lol

10k is too much but if they get popular prices come down and they could be everywhere.

Imagine if there was a tractor down most roads you went on
