When we’re not strapping ourselves into Subaru Imprezas to high tail it round Europe, we reach for our remote control version to ease off the stress of real driving/waiting in London traffic.Still, there’s something not quite the same about watching our electric four-wheeler whiz round the newsdesk chicane. What we’d really like is to be on-board. ‘An impossibility’, you say? Pah! We laugh in the face of impossibility.No, we’ve not developed a Honey-I-Shrunk-The-Kids shrinking device; we’ve found this, the remote control spy car. Looking like a cross between a dune buggy and a DeLorean aside, strapped to the bonnet of this sprightly RC is a video camera that transmits direct to a headset plugged into the controller.Set it off spinning and every tyre-screeching, carpet-burning turn will be relayed to your retina. There’s even night vision for lights-off action. Extreme.
