Quite a few friends and colleagues of mine drive these (two couples even have one each, his'n'hers!) a lot of people use them just to commute to work.

I'm 6'5" tall and, astonishingly, can drive one of these comfortably.

I was initially a bit concerned about their stability at high speed, but see plenty of them doing 70-75mph on the motorway with no apparent problems.

With fuel prices here fast approaching $7-50 per US gallon (over $9-00 per imperial gallon), they are very economical to run...
