Concept: two oddly shaped climate covered motercycles that can be easily clasped together to form a whole unified transport driven by the more powerful engine.
Additionally climate covered "segway" type transports can be linked behind to complete the 4-6 passenger sedan.
Abstract Imagry: "Honey I need to run to the store to get some milk n' bread. I'm taking the 3100." slight pause - "What on earth do you need the 3100 to get milk and bread for?" slight pause again- "Well what on earth do you need the 3100 to drive your'elf to work in when I've got to drop off the kids in the 1700? Jane blew me away at the light just yesterday and I haven't felt right since!"

Do you do a limo version?

I did one of these once. My "transformobile" had a central cab module, to either side of which attached two motorcyclesque devices, making the whole thing car-like. The bikes could pop off and be used individually, or the whole assembly could be used much like a van.

Someone pointed out that there used to be something on that stupid Team Knightrider show called "Plato Kat" that was essentially this, apparently. Never saw it myself, and there's not much on the web about it.

My version was also notable in that it marked an occasion where the good DrBob agreed with mp9man.
