Off his trolley

And finally, the last word in inter-city commuting. Andy Tyler has built a jet-powered shopping cart whose engine "glows red hot at temperatures up to 600°C, so he has to sit with his back to a heat shield."

“It can’t go on roads, runs out of fuel after two minutes and at over 50mph becomes unstable. People think I’m off my trolley but it’s exhilarating.”
