A brand new car for £1000

[joshwa]

... if you live in India:

Rolling off the production lines next year for just £1,000, the budget runabout will be within the reach of tens of millions of Indians who until now could only afford a motor scooter.

The Indian car giant, Tata Motors, is developing the vehicle amid great secrecy and claims it will be available in four or five-seater versions with an engine of just 30 horse power – a similar capacity to the average motorbike, and less than half that of a Ford Fiesta.

although I'm seriously unimpressed by the fact they (the telegraph) think Rover still exist

Through the Rover Group, Tata Motors already exports a £6,300 small hatchback, the Indica, to Britain, which is sold for £6,300 under the brand name CityRover.
