Where's the old yellow one gone??

This seems to be it's replacement,it always had flat tyres anyway.

I do like a good pickup conversion. The key is finding a car with a suitable wheelbase and rear overhang, for example this mk2 Polo pickup based on a saloon looks good.



However one based on the mk2 Polo Bread van less so



VW also tried a Corrado pickup which in my opinion looks horrendous


The Sweedes seem to do a pickup conversion or two Volvo 850 also works well

Not a pickup as such.
Those mad Swedes.

what is the new law with cars made into pick ups? people lead me to believe that they aren't legal anymore.

Saw a 3 Series Beemer conversion last summer, that looked pretty cool & a nice change from the V Dub crowd.

There is no "new law".

SVA was introduced in 1998, and the points system has been in place since at least then.

exactly - for vehicles which are monocoques - hacking the shell about that much means it;s nigh on impossible ot escape classification as radically altered
