Hi Bill
I saw an episode of Top Gear (I think) where they showed 2 or 3 amphibious
cars, I think the Dutton Mariner was one of the two which swamped on the
lake, would have sunk if there were waves! The other one which was sinking
was shaped like a Lamborgini Countach I think.

Graham.

actually amphibious, a sort of Amphicar for the 1990s. It was available as a
kit car, I've never seen one in the flesh and I don't know how many were
sold,
