Least practical car for £3000?

[Benbay001]

Ive had a boring week, so i will apologise for the crap posts ive made this week.
We all love trawling the classifieds, dont we? So, whats the least practical car you can buy for £3000? It must run, and have a full MOT. And you must have a link for it.

It has a boot, we can do better than that.. And with 2, think of all the stuff you could carry!? I call that practical.

I was looking at them earlier as a practical choice.
Would just like to add, this isnt a car for me, this is purely because ive ran out of ways to kill time this week.

If you are referring to my post, same digits in the link, but jumbled up a little.

I like that, but i have no idea what it is, fill me in. Kit car?

I think the Lomax is based on a 2CV. User on here has one, there could be a reason his name's Slomax

Least practical? I'd say this could be in with a shout if you up your budget slightly. Or does the fact it was practical once disqualify it? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3391414.htm

I only noticed because I knew my link wasn't an MR2, I even had to check I'd pasted the correct link!

Give up! The plastic pig winnes by a mile.

I'm sure somewhere there's a Sylva Leader for sale. Mine had a cut down windscreen that did absolutely nothing above about 40mph, spent most of its time with only one seat, no boot at all and no hood. Yours for about £1,500.



Eta: Given the above isn't technically for sale, here's the next closest thing I can find. Despite very similar appearances the Dutton Phaeton is a much less sophisticated car than the Leader, but I can't imagine it's that much different in the practicality stakes. This one is MOT'd and looks like it's in good nick, £1,695: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3354293.htm

It is 2CV based. Makes more sense with one less wheel. Only pays motorbike tax and insurance. I did like them, but feel the use of a classic 2CV limits them.

No mention of MOT but its got a tax disc so thats good enough for me

Roll cage makes it pretty impractical, but HUGE fun i reckon!
