Far Out!  Looks at least as desirable as some of the three wheeler concepts recently presented by VW and Bombardier.    :applause:

 ;D Well.

I have wondered a long time why nearly all 3-wheelers look like vintage 4-wheel cars with one wheel missing. The SeaLion 3-wheeler was therefore designed to be a modern looking and beautiful 3-wheeler with it's very own 3-wheeler identity.

Is there any chance that you will be able to build this at any time? It is an intriguing design - would be nice to see it come true.

Build it? Maybe. It is designed to be legal in both Europe and USA.

Latest update:
Earlier this autumn I recieved an email from a person in England that wondered if he could be allowed to sell the SeaLion in the UK as a BSA. But after some emails back and forth I haven't heard from him again the last months. :-\

The project is still in progress, here are some of the latest images of my 3-wheeler:














The proposed car is (by now) 338 cm long, 167 cm wide and 107 cm high. The wheelbase is 215 cm and the track at front is 150 cm. The wind-shield is sourced from the Lotus Elise/Opel Speedster/Tesla Roadster.
