He's such an inspirational guy. He obviously has a bit of money behind him, but everything he makes, quite literally comes out of a shed. And all of its friggin awesome!

His jet bike and the moped-powered mobility scooter are great.

I need to but a mobility scooter. I've seen far too many huge motors pop up on my ebay

Saw this a few days ago. Guy is a nutter

Haha Colin is a nutcase. I've met him a few times as I know quite a few people he knows.
Last time I saw him when I was getting my oil cooler fitted, he was going on about making a "robot wheeliebin" that asks people if they want some cakes, then start throwing cupcakes at them. Haha, guy is mental!

iirc from reading his website he was originally (or still is) a plumber and all his mechanic wizardry is self-taught through playing and experimenting with making whatever sprung to his imagination.
He was on TV for a bit actually.
