@ Iggz: Some of the lawnmowers we build are shipped to Europe, I know because they're the ones with the foot guards, those little bars on the backs of the housings. I prefer building lawnmowers to using them. ;)

@FastestLaps & Shaggy

Same here, I have nothing against lawnmowers . Well if those things just weren't so noisy. It is less of an issue in Europe as here lawn sizzors are more comonly used )

@ FastestLaps: Speaking of lawnmower engines, I work in a Husqvarna Lawnmower factory that builds push mowers, I have nothing against lawnmower engines, I've driven go carts with lawnmower engines and they were a blast to drive.
@ Iggz: The Fun quad would be a nice alternative to an ATV.

@Iggz

Do you have something against lawnmowers? Lawnmover engines are badass! :D

Able to withstand intense heat almost without any airflow and without water cooling. Able to deliver that 4 hp without breaking sweat for hours and season after season.

Briggs & Stratton American muscle FTW :D

@ Iggz: Pretty cool, looks like a fun little machine to drive around a suburban neighborhood, like a moped on 4 wheels.:)

According to site it was artificially limited to 21 horsepower. And I totally believe that because it's a 500cc and it makes like 30+ Nm of torque. It's natural power is about 30 hp +.

A 2 cylinder watercooled 4 stroke. Check out their site dude: http://www.secmavehicule.com/secma-fun-extrem.php

@Iggz: 21 horsepower, what does it have, the engine from a riding lawnmower? :)

There was an underpowered version with only 21 hp in the early 2000s. This looks like fun and i would really imagine buying one as a summer fun car to drive. By the way its spelled SECMA

@427

whats wrong with it? It looks little bit like the KTM X-Bow but it only cost 17,000Euro... cheap to buy and thanks to Renault technic cheap to run funtoy... not everyone can afford 60,000Euro and more for a KTM X-Bow or a similar vehicle thats street legal outside the UK
