A lot of unexpected things about it when you read the book.
Eg, it has a radiator.
Nice toy, wish I had the spare cash to buy one.

Towing is not recommended. Or charging from a portable generator.
That's odd, because a little 1KW Honda generator in the boot would be a
life-saver in some situations. If I could afford such a car, I'd
probably make sure that any generator was well-regulated, but I'd want
one.
An engine would be handy for the odd long journey. It doesn't
particularly need a generator though:-

It is quite good. Low C of G independent suspension all round. Small
wheels, high tyre pressures, you feel the bumps a bit. Front wheels
very narrow,probably tyres not last long.
