Behold! The Peel P50 in all its glory
a death trap that got famous now its a valuable box irl due to top gear episode on it back in the day
Great example of how shitty musicians get famous
Anyways still wip.. I'd say somewhat finished the shell.. Not that details anyways so
(you can't even find blueprints for this.. Neither free models, so i hardly been able to make my own ones )

Nice, looking forward to having another competitor for my Hadraplan

ah Yes, with these two there will be the most action packed races

Made the engine with the exhaust system
Simple round ish design.. Lacks lots pf components compared to real one but..

Nice. The one in Topgear did no have a reverse gear. However I read on wikipedia that they also made versions with reverse gear. I think in LFS reverse would be useful

It's attached to the "main" body (color slider #1). Windshield wiper is also coloured by that slider.
Was thinking if maybe you could make a separate slider for them and also add an square in the skin template so it applies the custom skin color on it.

Update: I was looking at the attachments and I noticed the steering wheel column is showing the skin

Did you know that Westhill Circuit had bought three P50 as promotion for the 2007 Grand Prix?
They are still in use today!




One is used as a service/track safety vehicle and the other two are used for advertisement and special events.
Imagine crashing your car and while you hang in the belts upside-down, this guy pulls up next to you:


The zip-file contains two "race" versions and a "service" version and the svg-vector file.
Anyone is free to make their own variants.
bayanofmansorofisky: if you want, you may also include them with the mod.
The bumpers are not skinnable, instead their colors have to be set with the color-sliders to match the skins.

-now it have rear brakes only

I think all 3 wheels have brakes.
At least this version has 3 braked wheels:
https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/am16/amelia-island/lots/r131-1964-peel-p50/175323
"cable-operated three-wheel drum brakes"
You can also see what seems to be the brake cable in the photo.

There are also this newer replica versions with disc brakes: https://p50cars.com/
but parking brake is only at the rear wheel.
I did not find a version with only a rear brake but maybe it existed?

Yep i seem to have obtained false information about brakes layout.. I'll revert back to 3 wheels

I don't even know why this little oldtimer costs50.000$

https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/am16/amelia-island/lots/r131-1964-peel-p50/175323 this one sold for $176,000 USD
This Lamborghini Diablo sold cheaper:
https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/as14/auburn-spring/lots/r1108-1991-lamborghini-diablo/577653

well only 26 cars still exist and only 47 were made. It is in good condition (or at lest well restored) and it has become a bit of a cult car.
For 15000$ you can order a replica.

The fact that I was just playing with this thing a few days ago because of the mod's release in Beam is crazy. Now I see that it's updated. I love this mod man
