Lets be honest here. It's a piece of st.

Would I buy one? Not in a million years.

Does it make for a good Shed of the Week? Damn right! Why? Because it'll get loads of people saying how SOTW is going down hill, "I wanted a hot hatch" "What's wrong with doing a German barge" etc etc etc.

It creates discussion, which surely is what SOTW is all about?

I always thought it was about hidden gems that people might have forgotten about that you can buy for less than a grand...

People looked at this and worry about what WHEELS it has on it?

Fire and lots of it is the only realistic solution

It's referring to the owner's self esteem.

Fair play to Shed for taking a brave pill and posting this up.

Not for me but it's brought a smile to my face on a wet miserable Friday morning in the office and it would make me smile if I saw it on the road.

Was Shed ever meant to be an informative piece recommending a practical and reliable car?
People need to calm down, great shed. Awful car but hilarious shed.

I've seen a few Mitsuoka cars around the Brighton area, which unfortunately says a lot about the tastes of cars down here.
There used to be a Viewt down the road from me, driven by an elderly woman who's husband would be out every sunny Sunday giving it a polish and seemed to love it to bits.
Mitsuoka take a production car and change its appearance to usually take on the look of a 60's or 70's model.
The one i dislike the least ( can't honestly say the word "favourite" ) in their production line-up is the Himiko, based on an MX5 albeit with a stretched chassis.

Surely it would suit someone with a mock Tudor mansion ...

Funniest thing about these cars is the boot, it's still Micra sized and just 'hangs over' the edge with a max weight of 35kg on the extended bit!
