The form of transport isn't commonly used in England, but now shoppers in St Anne's are likely to see one zipping about the roads.

This is a rickety ride but I enjoy the novelty factor - it's a bit like riding on an old rollercoaster like the Grand National.
But this tuk-tuk is not designed for public travel so if this sounds scary, you need not worry.
