RoadRazer

The last thing we want to do in the morning while still bleary-eyed is drag a razor across our stubbly visages, but here's one razor we would leap from our slumber to get our hands on.

The RoadRazer is a single-minded new sports car from the Low Countries.

That makes it all the more effective at using the 180bhp generated by the Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle engine. The makers claim 0-60mph in three seconds and a top speed of 150mph.

The driver sits in the centre, F1-style, with the passenger placed behind as in a jet fighter.

RoadRazer's builder Mikkel Steen Pedersen says the car will be finished and on sale by the end of this year, with prices starting at around £35,000 for a fully road legal car in the UK.

He can also supply a kit of parts for the owner to complete at home for around £20,000
