Can't help but feel that would actually look decent with the kit being colour coded and some mk2 focus rs wheels being put on there.

Agreed, paint it all white and put some nice blue graphics on it and it looks awesome

Picture courtesy of an 'internet cyclist friend' deep in western Brazil.

Given the location, I'm not sure whether it's "badly modified" or just "pure genius"...



...for reference, it's far from the most wealthy of regions, so probably born out of necessity rather than desire.

The plywood and sheet metal 'bodywork' gives it an early Land Rover look, but that looks like a generator on the front? Possibly running an electric motor drive system without batteries? Like a diesel/electric railway locomotive? Unfortunately the folks who supplied the picture don't know the occupants of the 'car', so I can't find out anymore about it.

Still buy one, just don't make it look gash like that one haha. I'm biased as I own one but in standard form and any guise they look great standard.

The bonkers thing here is that to make it work probably took more effort than replacing it with a proper one

Browsing Autotrader for Q7 V12's, turned off the 6.0+ limit and remembered why people hate this beauty, (even though I think it's a good car for why it is)

Christ, never realised they did a V12D, knew about the V10D Touraeg but that sounds seriously bonkers.
