Think the reason why the C5 failed is that the press at the time had speculated so much about what this thing would be. Will it be a Fiesta sized car?
Then THIS is unveiled and made a lot of them look stupid. Plus it was fashionable at that time to bash Sinclair.
"no visibility" really? How many disabled scooters do you see now wandering all over the road?
IF he had built and released this a couple of years back it would have been classed as a clean, environmental answer to Climate Change.

Ahead of its time, but I'm not surprised it was a failure.
As it was to be road-legal, many people at the time of its release said that they'd feel very uncomfortable sitting that low, with the wheels of overtaking lorries whooshing by their head! I can see what they mean......

I actually watched a show about this recently. They should have made this a two seater convertable. Were did you get this from? Was it expensive?

it's funny how much the future looks like the eighties

Excellent!
Correct , its sad that Clive invented this in his own future , while the reality wasn't ready for this great invention at that time...
