The second car to appear in the random cool TV car feature is the Lotus 7 from "The Prisoner". If you ever need to escape a big evil balloon then this is the car you need!
I've often wondered about building myself a Lotus 7, although I somehow expect that you would need some kind of mechanical aptitude! I would say that if I was to drive a car that I had built it would end in a fireball spinning down Manchester Road, but in reality I could see the thing falling apat on the drive when I release the hand break.
