Lean, mean and oh so green
The ID. Buggy doesn’t need a DNA test to prove the Meyers Manx is the dad – the original’s pedalo-like floating fibreglass body is updated (this one mixes steel, aluminium and plastic), as are the frog-eye headlamps, the tough-looking underbody protection and knobbly all-terrain tyres. Even the freestanding windscreen frame and rollover bar give it the same shopping basket look. There are no doors and just a fabric door that you’ll have to hastily fasten to the roof in a downpour, but who cares – we’ll get soaked if it means looking this cool.
