I'm new to the group and currently looking for a Microcar. For short journeys and good for a leaner driver. Only needs to carry two people, and have room for...
Hi Paul, Afraid Microcars only come as automatics. Using a CVT belt drive the same as Aixams. Microcars are the hardest to find of the Quads. Owners tend to...
Hi All! An interesting site for you all to check: Obvio.com This make (both gas and electric powered) will be imported here to the US soon. Though it will not...
Hi All! Correction. Go to the Google site, and type in: obvio cars. John rwpatmore <Robin_reliant_850@...> wrote: Hi Paul, Afraid Microcars only come...
Hi Paul, unless you want a historic type micro car I don't know of any manual versions of the quad spec. vehicles. Nearest dealer I know of to you is...
Since 2001, full UK motorcycle licenses do not provide B1 exemption. Basically, what can you drive in terms of light vehicles with a motorcycle license after...
There are two ways to obtain a B1 category licence since 2001. When applying for a motorcycle test, you can ask for the B1 category to be included. When you...
there is one manual quad that I know of. Joyner 650, it can be supplied with 18hp which puts it in the B1 Quad category. Clay ... From: rwpatmore To:...
Anyone interested in my V reg / 1999 diesel Aixam for £500 (no offers) ? No MOT but nothing seriously wrong. It will need headlights (dealer says £26 each),...
Why are Aixam's and Microcar's so expensive? All I want is something basic,reliable and cheap to run. I don't care about alloy wheels, dashboards, liquid...
Hi, A very good question, why are they so expensive? It has been estimated that if Reliant Motor company was still producing their 3 wheeled tricycles, they...
hello,i have put my microcar virgo on ebay again.after last years let down on ebay and lt put me off for a long time putting the car back on ebay.i can't run...
When you put it like that... You're right of course. I was weighing a Ford Ka against an Microcar/Aixam and wondering why the latter was £3,000 heavier. I was...
An Aixam or Microcar with no frills does appeal to me. I do sometimes wish that mine did not have electric windows and an ECU unit. A speedo driven with a...
Well they USED to do different equipment levels and different prices; pack, luxe & superluxe. Made a price difference of about €2000. I wonder if only one...
Sounds like the Zest would be right up your street then http://www.qdoscars.co.uk/zest-uk-launch.htm Unfortunately untill micro cars are built in the sort of...
I've just looked at qdocars website. The Zest looks like a fun runabout but I'm kind of worried about safety and what would happen to occupants of the vehicle...
yep im in the same boat really, biker, now Aixam. Id love a Zest but its not got four seats. I need that for our sons child seat. Id buy a kit if available or...
I like the look of the Zest. I could well imagine what brilliant fun it would be to drive it in the countryside in the Summer, when it's dry and warm... but...
The Zest is but one of the fun Quads that I have looked at and like. Like so many others, my problem is where to keep such a motor in safety. Sad to say, we...

I did have a similar problem in my Microcar MC1 when I first bought it, sticking in forward when needing reverse and on hills sticking in reverse when needing...
I agree with you 100%! Like you, I prefer a car without any of the optional extras tagged on. After checking into the power-everything model and comparing the...
I've owned 3 open top cars and get to hear this all the time. So I'm used to "aren't you cold driving that?" In actual fact I drove my first open top evey day...
does anyone have any theories of why aixams and microcar are written off so easily by insurance companies...seems you can buy a slightly damaged full car for...
Hello. Have noticed a trend of the insurance companies to write off both Aixams and Microcars for silly things such as cracked bumpers. After only owning a...
