to add.

I did ask the seat question when speaking to Henry, options list price up the carbon tillet seats. Standard seats appear to be a black gloss effort but single in that you can adjust independant of the other. I imagine a black gloss style bench , middle removed that covers gate / center console. So in turn makes them seperate for adjustment.

This may be a silly question but where on earth do you use one of these things at the speed it was intended for?

Are there off road tracks (like motorcross) readily available to the public or do you really need to be a farmer with a few spare hectares knocking about..........

The insurance risk with off roading must be quite high too....claims experience will be interesting.

I think it's likely the EVO vid shall do for the Nomad what the Top Gear one did for the Atom.

Interesting point, Wattie, re insurance. Who the duck would want to cover off roading in a Nomad? Christ, the Atom is daft enough, as a risk.

Cheers, Hedge

Why does the Nomad have to be for another use other than the road? It will be 'different' around a track than an Atom type thing, off-road it will clearly be off the scale (if you're lucky enough to source something). But the actual place where it will be used almost all of the time for me at least is on the road, the reviews so far indicate it's a different kind of brilliant vehicle on that surface, and as that is a UK road, the vehicle needs to be pretty compliant.

I do not see any downsides to having fun in this vehicle.

Strongly support this too. Yet to read a bad review. Just makes the wait even more difficult as I explained to Henry only yesterday
