Looks like that rear passenger wheel is locked up.

Looks pretty good regardless.

Wasn't any good when it was first built.

No brakes (weak sauce) Next to the definition of brake fade there is a picture of a 520.

No leg room (built for 4'7" asian)

Knock off MG motor (not bad but when you smash the throttle it says "what?")

Overloaded at 500# and please don't tow anything you will never get it stopped!

Exactly what I thought of as soon as I saw "520" in the title.
