Blimey! There was one of those in Auto Meiser, Brussels, when I went to collect my S2000.

I don't remember that many exhausts, though! World's tiniest V8 instal?

The number plates look stupidly large.

Counterpoints the £1,000 discounts already on Bagpuss.

mmm S800, soo cool!

the number plates are standard size, the car is tiny!!!! the grandad of all the motorcycle engined cars out there, and when revved screams like a banshee!!!

I've been close to buying one of these a couple of times, but not the coupe model, the convertible .... incredible amounts of fun!

Jay Leno has one in his collection and theres a thread on the renovation job he did on it with zorst upgrade ... fantastic cars!

Here's another well known chap giving one the beans ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oY5Uw9aUKLs

Love to have one of those, convertible though, looks much nicer.

I'm not sure you'd fit Simon ... even in the convertible!

They are tiny, i have had the pleasure of driving one and they are an amazing little car, must have been outrageously fast in their day. 1960's

[NSXGB]

That's a shame, I've never got near sitting in one.

Brilliant! Kudos to the owner for allowing it to be put there.

[gumball]

Love the Kei cars, (or is this previous to a Kei cars and just small?) , anyway a little revy car can be very fun.

Well kudos to the owners of phoenix honda as they apparently bought it for some show and shine event

I used to know the guy who helped establish the owners club back in the 1970s.

There's an experienced restorer who is installing an S2000 lump into one for fun. Because he can...

[havoc]

These predate Kei - they were that small because they didn't need to be bigger.

Saw a beautiful white S600 cabrio in Kyoto back in '09 - parked under a building down a back-street we were wandering down, had to go over and take a look.

Mmmmmmm white:drool:
