Gee Whizz, it ain't safe in an eco-car at town speeds

While I was in Morrison's Land Rover today the sales guys asked me if I had seen the latest issue of the Top Gear website.......................................... with the RTL crash test of the Gee Whizz. All I can say is that I have always thought they look like those blue invalid cars that were banned a few years back, the Gee whizz should also be banned on safety grounds - remember these tests were done at 40 mph to simulate 2 cars hittoing at 30 mphand even an increase to 35, let alone 40 mph increases the damage by a huge amount.

This is a frightening piece of film, I will steer well clear of any Gee Whiz I see on the road in future. Imagine the carbage if a lorry hit one. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW
