WATLING MK1

Picture

Name: Watling mk1

Type: Car

Year(s): 2015 - 2035

Crew: 1

Passengers: 3

Top Speed: 102mph

Seen In: The Gun

Fuel Type: Petrol - Electric hybrid

Weapons: None

General Info:

Outwardly resembling a BMC Mini (1959 - 2000 / 2040 - 2315 in Gamma Universe), this car is in fact a strong carbon-fibre "tub", with a hefty roll-cage, stuffed into an original Mini monococque, which makes it much stronger and safer. It doesn't come up to pre-great-revolution 2010's standards of safety, but is good enough for the better Britain forged after the revolution.

Inside it is like an original Mini, but with some 'aftermarket' modifications, such as a centre console with shelves, as standard. It is powered by electric motors 'inside' each wheel (making it 4WD, with huge torque), and the electricity is generated by a small petrol generator, which is always running at it's most efficient speed. It also uses lasers instead of spark plugs, burning almost all of the petrol in the cylinders, and providing a lot of power from a tiny 100cc capacity. It only has one small battery, which is used for 'parking manouveres'. To save fuel, the generator switches off when going very slowly, or stopped, unless the battery has also run out.

Variants:

The Gun: Steve Gunn has a black one.
