July 22nd, 2006 by admin

The Microcar MC1 and MC2 are small cars manufactured near Nantes in Western France. The Company behind the Microcar also builds boats and started building small cars when France introduced a law that states you don’t need a license to drive certain small cars, the UK has a similar situation where you only need a motorbike licence to drive cirtain small cars.
