After the failure of the C5 many years ago Sinclair are trying again.

Nice idea, and cheap enough, but the range looks a little low.

There's a spinning 3-D model and if you click "Enter", there's a vid... http://www.sinclairzx.com/

I don't know how you're supposed to look over your shoulder to see what's behind you. There aren't any mirrors on it....

I just noticed that too. I'm sure it will have some before its released (although Sinclair will probably charge extra for them).

Be interesting to see if they sell well this time round.

The old one still looks more modern though:

Love the way they edit the 'footage' out, if you pardon the pun...

The thing that will make this a success is the price.

Should have been a three wheeler.

Thats a well smart recumbent and as a recumbent rider I'm interested but I'd need to see one in the flesh to finally make up my mind

Get your order in before you watch the video or the price jumps dramatically!

That Bond Bug takes me back. Had a poster as a kid.
Some scary Sinclair stuff on the site, but this still has to one of the styliest calculators ever,
