Everyone on my flist probably knows about my pathetic and hilarious love affair with the Messerschmitt Kabinroller, the little three-wheeled microcar that is clearly the result of a fighter plane's one night stand with a Vespa.

Well, VW is going to produce something that made me whoop with joy:

Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is what I want for Christmas.

That is so cute!

The thing is, the only time I ever mourn not having a car is when I need to move something large, like a couch or bookshelf. For which that rocketbeen would be unsuited. Although it's probably safer than a motorcycle, alas.

There's something to be said for improvisation, though. I've seen Volkswagens hauling other Volkswagens. X3

Hee. Rocketbeen.

...If I strapped the furniture to rollerboards... This would work where my parents live (well, except on Cruncher Hill), but I'm pretty sure her ein the city it would be illegal. Maybe rent a trailer? :/

Rocketbeen~ Never gonna forget you
Three wheels tearing up the Autobahn
Rocketbeen~ Nothing's gonna catch you
Take those sharp turns just 'cause you can
One-man rocketcar
Shaped like bean
Yeah yeah, ROCKETBEEEEEEN!
