miketomcat Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 The worrying part is that's not a lot for a marinise kit and will probably find a buyer. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkie Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I've seen one of these little camo peugeots driving round my village with oil barrels in a roof rack. Everytime IÂ see it I think how embarrassing it would be to take it to a garage for an MOT or new tyres. Some people have no shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 There's one like that round our way, it is made as a charity collection pot, with various slots you can shove change into. They park it up and wait for people to be interested then realise it is for charity and shove some money in. There is one button on the outside that sprays some washer jets at you, and a couple of others, plus one that I failed to spot the 'please do not press' label - it fired off the loudest air horn (think train) I have ever heard close up. Echos nicely around Wells High Street All good fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eightpot Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 It may be a lifes work, it may be done well, but this looks like a Range Rover, a caravan and a fairground ride all tried to teleport themselves but got mixed up like in The Fly film. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F223471319006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkie Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I particularly like the small touches such as the can of what I assume to be Ezi-start under the bonnet and the rope on the chairs that are used to tie the hostages down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Looks like an authentic 80s conversion with noughties bodges... Could be nice if done right, and you can host a Pink Floyd concert with the lighting rig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 At least the step-ladder is shag-pile carpeted, bom chikka wow-wow!
