I know scrap metal has a high value these days, but £600 sovs is a bit optimistic.

That engine is most of the way into the cockpit.



Somebody has put a lot of work into that. It's a shame really...

Go? They should have called it 'Run', or maybe 'Go Away'

I think the wing mirrors are melting!
The nose looks like it came off a kid's pedal car and the rest of it looks fairly normal-sized.

Honestly, what are the designers thinking??

This is almost as ugly as putting low profile tires and chrome bling rims on a golf cart. (I've seen it done - not pretty)

The hood is bizarre... And the narrow rear arches??
there was one posted a while back with a tintop style windshield too. canted back to a hiddeous degree.
Oh, maybe this is the one I'm thinking of.

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but its sinking, Racing around to come up behind you again, the sun is the same in a relative way but your older, shorter of breath and one day closer to death

I remember the pictures when they were selling off all the old crap^H^H^H^H^H^H^H prototypes. Looks much better with the windscreen lopped off.

Not got an SVA... hmmm good luck with that. For £50 it would make a good donor.

No, that was one of the S7 range of cars. This one looks like it has inboard shocks with top rocker arm, which was also used on various other RH models.

^^^^^^ he's right you know

compared to a 7, the proportion is all wrong but it is not that bad in a mini moke type of way.

the dash/steering wheel could be improved visually.
