The shed was hilarious - jumping the line and bouncing over the grass.

In the original film one of the landspeeders (used for side on tracking shots where the underside was edited out to look like it was floating) was based on a 3-wheeler Reliant Robin/Bond Bug. The 1 wheel front, 2 wheels back (opposite of Morgans) Robins weren’t the best for handling.
