Flying cars were invented back in the 60ies but they never really took off. :pac: This one is rather cool because it takes seconds to transfer over from road use. Handy for avoiding the Westlink, traffic jams and the odd Garda car chace. :D…

That not a car, its a small plane, wings and everything!

Seriously though that looks like another case of a vehicle thats in thrawl to an idea with no thought to practical realities, would be fun to try and launch one from the M 50 in the morning! :pac:

It has drive shafts, ball joints, a gearbox, steering wheel, bumpers, front & rear lights and takes petrol at a filling station.
