oh jesus. why?!

that front looks like a aftermarket part. there's no why round headlights like that would have been standard. i'm guessing suzuki

Has to be Jap... Nissan?

Seen one exactly like that and same colour down here in Sussex by the sea about 6 months ago, quite cool if your not that tall and easy to park.

Is (was) it a rascal?


mookaloid - 21/10/09 at 01:24 PM

no one has it yet


f1ngers - 21/10/09 at 01:27 PM

It's a Subaru
Take a look here

"With a few modifications the Subaru can be mistaken for the 60's classic the 'Samba'"

The few modifications being making it longer, taller, noisier, adding more windows? Or mistaken by someone who's sight and hearing impaired, and has never seen or heard an original one..... genius....

Yep, I think it's actually the car off that site

Interesting spec too....

All Wheel Drive, Supercharged....

Beaten to it.

I believe its a Kei car, hence the weird specs.

On a similar theme, seen at Harrogate kit car show a few years back...

You win clever-dickie-of-the-year.

Any "cleverrer" people care to put that reg through a car check, I'm wondering what it's registered as...


morcus - 21/10/09 at 06:10 PM

Its a Mitsuoka (Probably spelt that wrong) Viewt (That too). Mitsuoka is a big company in japan and they produce alot of cars based on other cars that look like other cars.

There are two generations of the viewt based on the second and third gen micras respectively, and I believe there was a convertible. I was going to buy one but they were all about 7k for a 97 which seemed a bit tight for something based on a micra.

Illegally parked if the traffic warden didn't get any the night before?

There are dozens of these down here (West Cornwall), someone locally must be importing them.
