Sinclair C5

The C5 was to be the downfall of British inventor Sir Clive Sinclair, who in the late 70s and early 80s was famed for his electronic products such as scientific calculators and the Spectrum series of personal computers. I still remember the launch of this contraption being featured on the tv news in (I think) 1985. It was to be a total commercial disaster for the company. They are now collectors items, so I was very surprised to see this one in a yard full of old trucks.
