Cool ways to travel

There are some vehicles that just call your name. Just seeing them makes you want to hop in and take a ride or, even better, own one. Just for fun, I’ve put together my list of vehicles that did that for me. Here’s my list of five vehicles that make traveling cool.

5. Sir Richard Branson’s Necker Nymph submarine
Sir Richard Branson is always travelling in cool vehicles — and I’m not talking about Virgin planes. The Necker Nymph aero submarine is like an underwater plane and can glide on the surface of the water.



4. K.I.T.T.
I’m not the only one to think that KITT was the best thing about the Knight Rider series. A sleek, black, sporty vehicle that talked — and talked back to David Hasselhoff. I’ve always liked the idea of vehicles that could communicate, which is why this makes my list.



3. James Bond’s Lotus Esprit
James Bond drove several Lotus Esprits in his movies but the coolest one for me was the one that transformed into a submarine in the spy who loved me. While he has since driven flashier cars, none of those tops this one for me.



2. The TARDIS
the preferred mode of transport of Doctor Who, the TARDIS is bigger on the inside than on the outside, can go anywhere and has a few other useful tricks such as helping with regeneration and seemingly inexhaustible power supply. I’ve been fascinated with space travel since I first watched TV, which brings me to the top selection …



1. The USS Enterprise
Travel doesn’t get much cooler than this. Warp speed, dilithium crystals and the transporter makes this the best mode of travel I’ve ever seen. I only wish it really existed.


What’s on your list of cool ways to travel?
