Stick some alloys on it and a body kit, and you may be onto something!!
But seriously, where the hell did you get that?? Are you allowed to drive it on the roads?
it's ace!

she is fully road legal! no seat belts, no doors, left hand drive, drum brakes all round and no servo, 3 forward gears, non permentent 4x4, high/low ratio gears, 2.2litre side valve engine with 24v electircs, 1 silencer on the exhuast which comes out the side, full convertable including the front screen (it folds down onto the bonnet), push button start and seating for 4 people (unless ur in the army where u can sit as many as u like on it!
now the good part!
MOT isn't as strict being it is x-army and made in 1960
historic vehicle insurance (me mum and me dad insurance is £86 and with me on it is an extra £86, not bad for 2.2 litres!)
tax exempt
and if there is someone on the roads u really don't like, u can scare the sh!t out of em as u can mount a 60caliba (rather large) machine gun!
u do get alot of respect from others when ur in it cause they don't want a metal bumper wedged in there car, however u get some people, usually chavs who think out of the asses n decide to think its stupid and take the p***!
like the photoshopping! keep the coments coming, has n e one ever driven one?

we think we had it up 2 around 55mph on the dual carrige way on da way home from getting it, u wouldn't want to go much faster than that, becomes hard to keep straight with the type of steering its got (tisn't rack and pinion)! also, the speed is in km/h and if someone asks ya wot speed ya going at as ur going along u say:
" ummmm 60.30,60,30,65,25" etc. cause the niddle jumps around so much! still tis all part of the fun!
