          That might work with a helicopter, but he has to use pedals as well as steer in a car.

            Driving a car with a yoke is completely doable.

            Depends how prehensile his body is, could be pressing the gas with his… torso?

              I imagine the further the yoke is moved the faster it goes.

              Like the walk stick for an fps.

    As a kid we used to go to the Beaulieu Motor Museum quite a lot, and I was always fascinated by the Outspan orange car, which is almost identical to this. But orange.

    I’m assuming the Pea is also based on a Mini.

    A bright orange car shaped like an orange, belting around a track at almost certainly dangerous speeds.

      Looks like the engine is in the back, and seat is placed so you shouldn’t have weight distribution issues, it shouldn’t actually roll. Your head should have plenty of room. Now all we need to do is shorten your legs 🤔

    That’s the first car I’ve ever seen that I instantly desired to own with all my heart. Maybe I can just get my honda repainted that color…would that satisfy the craving?

      I want one big enough to mount a recliner in it.

      Maybe make it a short range EV…

      For actual production cars you might like the Peel P50, or some of these other fun microcars.

          You just need a 5 point seatbelt and an helmet. Maybe a padded jacket too. And a mouthguard. Look, if you are not ready to really commit to the game you are better off not playing.

          Also padded gloves and motorcycle boots.

            I wore flip flops and T-shirts on motorcycles when I was younger. Helmets not required… This thing looks super fucking safe to me.

    At least it looks like you can get in and out of the doors at the side, rather than the BMW Isetta which amusingly coupled the front-only opening with having no reverse gear.
