It will likely not be cheap either. Single cylinder engine reminds me of the old mobility carriages... Terrible cold, rattly dangerous things.
The disabled are no different to the non disabled. They want the same things, same passenger and luggage/shopping capacity. Same safety, same performance, same as everyone else has. With that in mind, there are already a bunch of conversions. From small drive from wheelchair vans, to larger ones like the VW transporter/multivan/caravelle or the US style minivans, like mine etc.
So really, I just dont get their thinking. And I doubt its even cheaper as limited production costs...
Then theres insurance... Its a what? Does it have an NCAP rating?
My van, full of air bags, and a large steel engine bay with crumple zones scores quite badly compared to most euro vehicles. Athough the left hand drive performed better.
