Default Anyone seen this on our roads????

I was returning home yesterday afternoon feeling tried after a hard early shift at work, when this strange looking bike travelling like a missile was heading towards me. You dont see many of these(or they maybe many about) on our roads. Has anyone seen them about this year. Searching the net they they cost an absolute fortune. Looked great in black.

It's an EcoMobile. Think it had a BMW K100 drive train. Anyway, Clarkson can tell you all about it - linky.
