well done in Pshop Sir. LOL

I'd buy one of those...if they could squeeze a boot in, it might even do for the supermarket run

I've got a solution to shopping problems. How do I post pictures on this damn thing?

...but this doesn't work if your photo is hosted on certain photo sites with certain rules (mine are on Fotopic and I can't embed photos here - if so then just write the link in the message and we'll click on it.

How hot is your hatch?
It was going to be a work of art, but I got dragged to the pub. Still, you get the idea.

Mate that is actually pretty darn gorgeous...the next M12 GTS (as in will carry a huge "S"hopping load) probably couldn't squeeze in extra passengers due to engine positioning....still could even cook your shopping on the way home as an added extra FOC

[jipsom]

Damn! I didn't even consider how my frozen chicken kievs would fare in that boot. Back to the drawing board.

[AMG Merc]

That is cool!

I think in the old days (so they tell me!) this would be called an M12 "Shooting Brake".

Surely a shooting break is posh peoples name for an estate.

Right, this one has the engine up front! That's a tail-gate at the rear!:-)

Please don't do this again

Is that Pug 206 rear?

[hunttheshunt]

Rob,

My apologies, I didn't see the link, but thought you were referring to the original bubble car version.

That is indeed an M12 Shooting Break, although I think your idea of moving the engine up front might be fraught with the odd problem or two!!

I guess you need the exra space for the Manilow vinyl collection!!

Well spotted that man. I was going to use a Reliant Kitten but I couldn't find an image at the required angle. Now THAT would have been special.

Here's the kitten for you at the sameish angle



Or the pickup version??

[robp]

M400 cancelled - Smart Nobles the car. Even I will be able to reach the pedals without having to get the seat-runners moved forwards!!

Cheers Joust. The Kitten looks marvellous. I'm setting up a local garage to begin production of these little buggers - but only in milky green.

[hunttheshunt]

I think Martin might be a little pissed when he see's that you've chosen a dodgy green colour too!!!
