Anyone fancy this on the back of their car?

I've got something pretty similar on the back of one of mine already !

Can't say I've ever seen one before in the flesh !

[Vegard]

That's fantastic

[davidnutland]

being a very early sixties child we had a couple in the East Dorset area way back, one Fiesta Yellow the other OEW, I always thought they looked a bit crap compared to our Riley Elf

How cool is that

Lets hope the winner, will fit it to a Min .

ive never seen one of these in the flesh before, id love to see it fitted to a car, just to see how bad it looks!

[mk1]

That is a cracking find! A real rarity. I suspect that although they were pretty widely advertised in the day there were few sold. This one certainly looks like it has never been fitted doesn't it.

It would indeed be great to see it on a car, I'm not holding my breath though.

you don't need to hold your breath mark, just open your wallet!

Just don't get a puncture, the process of trying to get the spare out of the boot would innevitably be followed by weeks 'in traction'.

have you lot gone completely mad??????!!!!!

why on earth would anyone who has an already rare mk1 mini, decide to spend money on that and make their car look like its filled its nappy??!!

[mk1]

Stu,

I haven't gone mad, I wouldn't put it on one of my cars under any circumstances, BUT I would like to see it on someone else's car as it is an unusual original 60's accessory. Yup, its an ugly one, but rare & unusual. I always like to see these sort of things fitted to someone else's car

You've missed the point, noone wants it for themselves, but we'd all love to see it on someone elses car.

Clever. An Elf with that on would be even more utterly hideous. Love to see it though...

[BRI MK1]

Dont belive you Brian your Raddie is a Hatch = so it wont fit .

But why not fit it to that nice Cooper you have or your Hoopers Min

[Austin Costin]

I don't need the extra carrying capacity, ive got my period 1970's roof rack!

How very dare you ??!!

If you fit it to your Clubman you wont know which end is which !
