AGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!! MY EYES!!!!!

This is the automotive equivalent of digging up lady diana and robotising her skeleton and then making it dance like jacko.

It's for abortions like this that I think that the EU's proposal to ban modified vehicles might be justified :?

Still someone other than the creator obviously likes it as it has a bid....£8k !!!!

Many years ago, a friend told me that in the automotive world there is an a** for every seat.

While it is not to my taste either :o , people have been creating oddball and 'wacky' Mini's since the 1960's......all part of the diverse history and heritage of the Mini (and the general public and kids like to see this kind of thing at the shows!) :D

to be fair to the sj13 in the ebay advert, it probably complies with both the law and the mot quite well.

as its based on the chassis of the sj it wont need an sva/ive (as long as the chassis hasnt been cut etc)

at least its not registered on the mini pickup id......


it is, however, a proper eyesore - even with my love of vile mini based things i think its horrid!
