The Martin JetPack Company OK, I don't have £150k, but if I did and I was thinking of buying say a supercar, I'd seriously consider one of those instead. it's utterly impractical, but frankly so is a Lamborghini.. (reads FAQ)

Given at cruising speed (say roughly 45MPH) it would go 22 miles on that, that's about 2.2 miles per gallon  .Or in other words, my commute by it would cost me about 500 quid a week at current prices... |
