Great Aussie innovation
 

We all know the flying car just isn't going to happen, but what about one of these? http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/04...he_sea_starts/

OMG they promised me they wouldn't publish that photo without my consent ;)

Are you the Starfish or one of the other fish? :D

LOL!! Would be pretty useless in alot of Moreton Bay though Jim, it looks deeper than some of the water out there ;) .

There is something about the image that that conjures up that is just scary :scared: . (Just look at the pic of her, you'll see what I mean ;) )

I think they have a couple of them down the Gold Coast ( belonging to sea world I think) - They featured them on Coast watch a while back, or creek to creek , can't remember which one.

They're good for spotting the turds and plastic rubbish in Moreton bay :)

Never mind those - I want one of those aqua cars .. just pull up and drive into the water ( they have the bus version in the GC) .. but I want the car


Next: Hybrid Car (Brit invention I believe)

FAST AND AMPHIBIOUS
Inventor: Gibbs Aquada

If you're wondering what to get James Bond for Christmas this year, read on. The Gibbs Aquada looks like a sporty roadster, but drive it into a suitable body of water, press a button and in 12 seconds flat its wheels tuck gracefully under its body, and you're boating, not driving. The Gibbs Aquada can do 100 m.p.h. on land and a cool 30 m.p.h. afloat, powered by a proprietary jet-propulsion system that generates nearly a ton of thrust. If you're not superspy material, don't worry: the Aquada comes with special sensors that keep it from accidentally transforming itself at embarrassing moments�say, when you're cruising along on dry land.

(it will only cost you 150,000 pounds :D.. I'll have two, or go on then get me three)

Oh damn! Maybe I could use it in the river?:D

About the pic - very 60s naff it seems to me. Perhaps going for the Bond image?

See you,

Jim
