The car is 72 in (1,829 mm) long and 42 in (1,067 mm) wide, with a weight of 198 lb (90 kg). Like the P50, it uses a 49 cc (3.0 cu in) DKW engine, and a top speed at 28 mph. It was advertised that the Trident got 100 miles per imperial gallon (2.8 L/100 km; 83 mpg-US), "almost cheaper than walking". The original retail price was £190.

All engines supplied to Peel from Zweirad Union (for both the P50 and Trident) were of the 49 cc 3-speed 4.2 horsepower 804-1600 type. Uniquely, however, the Peel engines had the 9th digit as a 4, thus being of the form 80416004***. This car is one of the smallest in the world. - Wiki

I wouldn't mind this little snot for a cruise car! :lol:
 
First thing I would do is take it GT Auto sto squeeze all of the power out of the engine, then put a stupid looking wing on it, RS tires, and you have yourself an apeeling car.

I see what you did there! :sly:

Honestly, I'd leave it stock, and take it trial mountain. Cruise... cruise... cruise...
