Watched Jonny Smith's video (formerly the CarPervert, now the Late Brake Show) of it as well, quite enjoyable (both the video and the "car")!
I don't really see any practical use for it outside an urban environment, but obviously that's not what it's aimed at anyway (youngsters and disabled people aside perhaps). I quite like the the concept and how they implemented it, quirky but lovely (albeit not very masculin/manly) Defender 130 HCPU Td5 MY2000 |

For the money though, you'd be buying a very limited car. Throw in a few more USD's (yes, that's dollars) and buy an ex-lease Fiat 500e overseas and have it shipped over. They are very cheap at the moment, they hardly degrade with a range of ~60+ mi on a single charge. And it seats 4 (well, 2+2 really), has A/C, radio, ABS etc.. And it will go 85 mph, so you're not limitted to the city /B-roads. Only downside is they're LHD obviously. If you don't fancy importing one yourself, there's probably a local shop that has already done it for you (at least here in NL there are quite a few). Defender 130 HCPU Td5 MY2000
