Does the transporter it just fell off come with it?

Does it have £999 in cash in the boot ?

On the fence with this one...but erring towards acceptable.

Horrific IMHO. Wonder what they're planning on towing?

Conversions like this 944 one were the subject of discussion on Smith'n'Sniffs's podcast a couple of weeks ago:




Much better than the 968, looks like a pickup trucktop

Off FB.. stated as a 968 homebuild.
(One of the comments did liken it to the breadvan)

NB: I didn't notice the tow bar... That will definitely lose a few points now.

Cayman with a “look how individual I am” wrap. This should split the crowd.

I really like that

Yeah me too.

Think the Martini colours would looks good on any car for a start.

I like the proper conversion too. There is a Strosek replacement hatch for 944/968 that puts the window further forward, it's better than the truck top thing but I'd still go with the standard window or the proper conversion.

The silver one is more practical than the Strosek. Maybe the owner has a dog?

…and by the looks of it is presumably reversible?

[Kuwahara]

The 944 has a hint of this about it…

I love that, perfect and wouln't change a thing.

This little beauty just popped up on Facebook for £500 (no MOT)



The interior is of particular interest because the owner has added a DVD system for the delight of his passengers, and has also replaced the headlining with a shaggy bath mat.

There are two things I would use to improve it

It's fabulous, with a hint of Scimitar (ignoring the Allegro comparison), what's not to like?

I also liked the Allegro estate in it's day.

It's a definite "like" for me too. The only thing I'd add would be a trailer hitch.
and maybe a noddy dog in the back window

Another vote "for".

Just as well Porsche didn't as it would have put the Lotus Elite out of business.
