Moller Skycar M400

Back in 1986, I was absolutely convinced that flying cars would be widespread by now, mostly thanks to misleading movies & other such media. Today, where I was going definitely needed roads, thank you Dr. Brown.

Still, there's a glimmer of hope that I may one day ride in a flying car before I kick the bucket. How do I retain such enthusiasm in the face of harsh reality I hear you ask? I present to you the Moller Skycar M400.

I suppose the term "car" could be applied quite loosly. I don't care how rich you are, I doubt you could nip down to M&S on a saturday afternoon in this badboy. And what about parking in tight spots eh? Our survey says nope. Though find a shop with a helipad and I guess you'd be laughing thanks to the Skycar M400's vertical take-off facility. Who needs harriers now?

Unfortunately I don't have the best part of half a million quid sitting around to get myself a Skycar M400. If you have 3 other friends who'd be willing to chip in, it can seat 4 quite comfortably. Great for a booze cruise over the channel if you ask me.

Crusing around in the Skycar M400 looking like a red arrow with stabilisers sounds pretty good to me. Only thing I need to get around now is £324k pricetag... ouch.

"Why is it pointless?"

Unless you are very rich, you can't have one. And even if you were, you could probably get a helicopter cheaper

"Why is it cool?"

It's a flying car. Need I say more?

Oh come-on! You want one of these... .. the worlds first inflatable wet bike. Apparently the Aqua Glide is only for kids, but I don't want to believe them.

Not the usual sort of thing for this site, but when we saw a gadget site selling old Russian fighter planes, we just had to take a look.

We've seen the concept of skateboards and scooters being stretched to their limits before, but is this something different from the normal ill-conceived ideas?
