Not a production vehicle - just one man's fun project.

Possibly The World's Smallest Car (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL9YuEjjrs8&feature=player_embedded#ws-lq-lq2-hq-vhq)
Yea, that will pass crash tests ;D
Nice UK mullet on the son.
There was a production car that might actually be smaller than that - the Peel P50

And Jeremy Clarkson ( yes that big lurch) in a p50

The P50 is mentioned in that first video.
He says the car he built is nearly half the size of it.

I was in stitches when I watched that episode live. Clarkson is a genius at being an idiot.
Mmm.... Yeah, they allude to the P50 in the first vid saying that the custom car is half the size of the current record holding smallest car, which it is, but it's not the same record class. The P50 was a production car. The first one is a custom car. The P50 will get to keep its record but the first guy may get a new record made for him.
I don't quite get how the first one is much different from those guys that drive around in little cars during the Rose Parade. I mean if he chopped off the roof it'd be the same thing except that I think those things run on go-kart engines or lawn mower engines.

Ah.. the video had some odd stuttering problems when I watched, so I didn't get past him crashing into the garden fence.
