I am still trying to work out what is going on here. Have they covered the roof with fabric to make it appear its a convertible with the roof permanently up?

The "Move" sign is particularly classy. Hard to imagine that the owner is a courteous driver.

Is that a mk3 Astra? If so it’s had the front half of the roof chopped off and the rear seats are now the front seats and the front cabin is engine bay!

Thanks. When I was a kid my parents ran an affordable hatchback car dealership from home, it has given me a large knowledge of crummy old 90s cars and a surprising amount fondness!

Pretty sure the seller is taking the pee. Is that a Ford Focus head unit crammed in there?
