Posted by: idhay30  /  Category: Cars

Perry Watkins from UK, created this Flatmobile 2 years ago and it has entered the Guinness Records for being the lowest car in the world.

The Flatmobile stands at just 19 inches off the floor and has a ground clearance of 2 inches.

This crazy car was constructed from a 1963 Hillman Imp and is based on the original Batmobile from the 1960s American television series, Batman.

It still uses the original Hillman Imp 875 Sport engine but Perry has added a home built gas turbine to give it extra power.

This custom car is completely road legal in the day but is not allowed on the roads at night due to the headlights not being at the road regulations height.
