A US company has developed a car that can fly.
At the touch of a button the Transition from Terrafugia four-wheeled car extends a pair of wings either side of its main body.
Chief operating officer, Anna Mracek Dietrich, said: "It will take just a few seconds to transform and will be fully automated after the command is given in the cockpit. We're currently sold out for at least the first year, approaching the first two of production". At £74,000 they are cheaper tan a Range Rover
The prototype, which runs on super unleaded petrol, cruises at 120mph and lands at 65mph.
It is not clear if one of the marvellous Japanese cardboard toilets are fitted but if this is the case remember these facilities cannot be used during take off and landing.
