Can someone send this to the Binky guys to show how easy it is and it doesn't take 12 years.

To be fair a classic mini is about half the size of a Micra laugh

V5 present, however still registered as a 1.0 as its never seen road use since being built
Never (legally) will see the road either without an IVA, as its now officially an unregistered vehicle.

It's not a car, and it's not exactly modified, but I think it's brilliant. That's the mud on his van it's drawn with.

That is brilliant. You should have started a thread with it.

Comes with a Years mot though so I doubt that’s going to stop the next buyer.

Is there a reason it wouldn't pass an IVA? It's a modernish mainstream car, it should meet all the external radius restrictions, etc.

"without an IVA"

Not that it wouldn't pass an IVA.

Indeed, I was just wondering if there was a reason to believe it would be difficult getting it road legal.

I haven't worked out how to do a YT screen cap, but how about a modified Prius. So powerful it causes the wipers to pop up.

This will split the crowd, Tin Can Alice. A 1998 Skoda Rapid back to bare metal. I think it’s ace. Don’t know if the eBay link works, so try this first

Biased as I’m a big Mk 2 Escort fan. This one looks lovely. Understated colour’s a nice change from ‘standard’ Ford red/blue/yellow etc and the mods are nicely subtle. Don’t know what the running gear is unfortunately.

I had a 1600 Sport in same colour but with X pack arches and 8'' Alley-Cats back in the day. Also fitted with a 1600 crossflow, albeit 1660 race spec. All bought for less than £1200, which gives you an idea of how long ago it was. smile

This looks great too.
