[Closed] Is there such a thing as a road-legal hovercraft?

I would pay good money to be in the room when you take it in for its MOT.

I'm still intreuged (sp?) by the idea of a hover-through fast food takeaway. Would a double story one work? Could require more hover power than the hovercraft I drove could muster. Hope the driver above keeps up his concentration!

I'd pay money to watch the first time you try to reverse parallel it in a town center!

Could be surprisingly easy to park, I'm sure crabbing one can't be the difficult.

the driving test would have to be very hard - you would need a shed load of skill to make sure you can corner and stop the thing - no tyres gripping the road to help you out.

Holy Thread Resurrection, Batman! Damn, I'd totally forgotten this thread, good to see it back. I SO want that Landy with the huge sneakers on, just the thing for driving around on Burnham and Brean beaches, and laughing at the stupid grockles who get stuck in the mud with their s****y four-by's.

I'll see your fat-tyre Landy and raise you this brilliant thing... Was parked for years at the landy dealer at Lix Toll but apparently got exported to South Africa to be put back into use, which is pretty cool.

As I said some time ago the world would be a far better place if we used hovercraft more.

I was once given a hovercraft down the pub, it needed completely rebuilding, but I had all the plans. Never got round to it unfortunately, and had to get rid when we moved.
