World's smallest car Peel can fit in lift

World's smallest car – the Peel, which is no bigger than a fridge, can park nearly anywhere.

The midget motor is so compact that about 12 of the cars fit in a normal parking space, and has been attracting curious glances and much mirth around North Sydney, the Daily Telegraph reported.

"We've had a funny reaction to the car - people see it and burst out laughing," The Classic Throttle Shop at North Sydney owner Rory Johnston said.

"It's a real novelty but it could be the car of the future, who knows?" he said.

He added that the car is so small that you could literally drive it into the office (the car fits into a lift). If the car breaks down, two men can carry it home.

The Classic Throttle Shop is selling three of the cars on consignment.

They are reproductions of the original Peel P50 manufactured in the 1960s by Peel Engineering on the Isle of Man.
