I had a thought a few years ago of a rebodied D3/RRS with a defender body, with massive arches like the arctic ones.... Hmmm...

Not badly modified, but badly speced. Individual is one way to put it. I quite like it, red carpets aside.

I quite like that, headrests aside.

I know the lady that owns this, she's not that long had this done. She's had quite a few different wrap jobs on MINIs in the past

Ummm the likeness is almost uncanny!

..Its just the chrome I think that is the issue.. and maybe the colour. Murder it all out black and it would look hard as nails.. and less like something Barbie would drive to the seaside.

Me too, but no MOT since 2011 and only covered 4 miles in the preceding 5 years...…..I suspect it needs some major work and 9k is a piss take.

I suspect it will be a case of £9K for a VIN number - yikes.

I have seen those at a couple of shows and they don't look too badly done. Not to my taste though and a lot of money to alter a car that is pretty good looking anyway.

Atleast the wheels can be changed and it will be lovely again as it isn't really modified is it?
