    It looks good but it makes a horrible noise!
    And you would have thought with such a clever concept they would of splashed out for a decent interior!
    You would look really stupid if you were showing it off and then the car wouldn't start

    Granted, but it is very cool for a proof of concept.

    I had head phones on listening to music so i didn't hear the audio. true it doesn't sound fantastic, but see first line in this post

    What happens when you get inside and the battery dies? Both the door and the windows are electric.

    Couldn't be arsed to read through it but someone said it was made of fabric? So yes, it would definitely fail safety tests!

    I thought that, but if I remember correctly the Renault Avantime requires the electric window to roll down before the door will open, although I guess you could just smash the window if you really wanted to get out quick.
