Time for an update to this "what you can bought new for the same money as a GR86" thread malarkey.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you a vehicle which I had never heard of before, which can be purchased today for £31,995:

What is this strange mash-up of ancient Nissan Micra, Fiat 500, and MINI's ugly second cousin, you are probably asking?

Well, it's called (and this is it's real name - someone has signed this off) - The ORA FUNKY CAT. That's the real name.

It's so sh!t, even those who tend to celebrate sh!t cars think it's sh!t.

You might be wondering how I became aware of this product.

Well, I'm ashamed to confess that a family member is acquiring one. This is an actual blood relative.

Let's remind ourselves - it is thirty two thousand pounds.


My only hope it that the manufacturer links up with a popular South Korean car company, which will allow for some amusing fruit-based beverage puns*.

Jonny Smith reviewed the Funky Cat and didn't hate it...

Well it is automatic, as a no cost non-option. So it is comparable to the GR86 auto in terms of price and number of wheels. A tough choice.

I saw these advertised and had to check the name twice. Not something I would own but I like it, it looks a bit fun, a bit playful, has a modern retro vibe and is definitely more interesting than the soul destroying domestic appliances coming out of VW or generally most bloated stuff from Europe.

Fair enough and a good point re. the identikit Euro VAG stuff
 
I've seen more 0RAs in the wild than GR86s, I've seen seen 1 ORA. I assumed they'd be cheaper.
 
While the rear seats are decent overall by small electric car standards, the Funky Cat's boot is tiny, with a capacity of just 228 litres

The GR86 is 226L. It's almost impressive they've managed to get such a small boot on a hatchback that size.
