I have the little Renault Twizy, it has an adjustable power box so you can top out at 70 mph (55 feels pretty fast enough in it) and it can just about wheelspin away so it is quite nippy (compared to the 100% standard ones)

It is 2 seater, one in front of the other with Lambo doors. only 50 mile range but re-charge to full in around 2 hrs on normal 3 pin plug (can also use the free chargers at supermarkets etc.)

I use it for the school run and bombing around the village, it is great, no power steering (doesn't need it - its 400 kilos), no servo brakes, no traction control...just 2 pedals and you only really use one as you can adjust the regen braking to almost do emergency stops. As it is so narrow it has double the road to use so you conserve speed by apexing the corners and I leave a lot of cars behind in the twisties plus off the line.

Mine is camo wrapped with bright wheels - I will post a pic
