I agree with the article, nice to see Honda looking towards building something other than family shopping trolleys again. And a revival of the "S" model..!

Now is that 66BHP at the back end, I thought this was to be a hybrid with electric power to the front end? I can see these being a lot of fun and maybe earning a race class of their own.

The Mg midget only had 46BHP and they are loads of fun to chuck around.

I like the idea and look of it!

No - they'd be more reliable.

Rumours of an export Honda S1000 version persist.

The car looks great fun, though.

I like small - and very small - cars and this has many cues from one of my all-time favourite small cars - the Honda Beat.

I would be very happy to have one if these, but like the comments from the U.S. concerning Honda North America, I wonder if Honda UK will be bold enough to bring it in here?

And if they do, there's the ability of the existing UK Honda dealer network to contemplate looking after it...

I think it looks fun, I'd be interested to go out in one but not sure if I'd ever buy one.. Maybe if it had another 100bhp or so
