ON THE WEB: THE ROCKET-POWERED BEETLE Men and motors... men just love their cars, the faster the better, and here's the story of how one man customized a humble Volkswagen beetle by fixing a jet engine to the back. What's more, the car is licensed to be driven on the roads of California. I can't make up my mind whether this is very, very cool or barking mad. Probably a bit of both! Anyway, see for yourself on the Jet Beetle web site. (Warning: you may find an advert comes up first when you go to this site, but you can click to make it go away. |
