And for something completely different.

(1/1)

turtle:
Again featured in this months (December) Total Off Road.

This is the Gibbs Aquanda.

“The worlds first high-speed sports amphibian”, Powered by the 2.5ltr Rover KV6 engine (as used in the Freelander), top speeds of 100mph on the road and 30mph on water.

Bush Tucker Man:
Am I right in thinking that one of these had to be dragged out of the Thames a couple of weeks ago as it partially sank? (on the press launch??)

So it really became a semi-submersible.


Looks like an aquatic Mazda MX5, that's even allowing for the fact that it  actually uses the MX5 headlamp units.

turtle:
It doesn't mention that in the write-up.... bet that was a bit embracing? And yes does look a bit Mazda-ish.

The only other thing mentioned was the price tag £150,000… Ouch!!

Frankie-Boy:
At £150,000 it'll probably sink without a trace.
