    Yours for only $500,000. Its very good price considering how much a top of range Bently or Rolls Royce costs.

    I wonder if a pilots licence is needed? :)
    The M400 needs 35 clear feet to take off but thanks to its 770 hp engine can whiz to 365 mph - cruise control kicks in at 326 mph - and climb at 6,400 feet per minute. You may hear it before you see it: it emits a rather noisy 65 dba at 500 feet. Interestingly, with a fuel consumption of 20 miles to the gallon on the road, it's rather more economical than a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) and looks positively eco-friendly compared to a Hummer.

    Wonder would you need tax and insurance as the cops are not likely to have a check point in the air yet. Dont even see them on the roads sometimes.

    These things have been around for a while, i am very suprised that ppl dont have them yet. U would expect 1 person in ireland to have 500,000 to spare
