cooler:

British builder Perry Watkins sits in his "Wind Up" minicar on a street in Essen, Germany. The car is listed in the Guinness book of records as the world's smallest car with a license to drive on public streets. Just 41 inches high, 51 inches long and only 26 inches wide, the mini always finds a parking space. It can drive 60 kph and even has security belts. The car will be shown at the motor.
