The fastest, the sleekest, the most famous and the strangest! This fascinating high-speed look at more than 200 years of motoring will have you marvelling - and sometimes laughing out loud - at cars that float and fly and walk, cars made from plastic and even bamboo and cars that are knee-high or as long as a bus. You too will be asking Are You For Wheel?
What famous Australian family car was nearly named the Koala?
How did the Dynasphere, a car with just one wheel, stay upright?
Heard about the trend-setting hybrid built by a lawnmower company?
Did you know that the man who invented the car also invented the car crash?
What car was known as the duck, the tin snail and the upside-down pram, yet sold in the millions?
Heard about the car with a whopping 36 cylinders?
What about the one that was powered by a fan - and looked like a hair dryer?
