I like that. 215 tyres will mean forward motion could be limited. 😂😂

😂 Indeed. Maybe I was being a little unkind as I really dislike Beetles and that one to me, is awful.

It's fair enough pov :)
I like the idea, not the execution; on that basis I wouldn't get as far as the price.

I've always wanted a tubbed <something>, this would be a great tow car too. Maybe.

And from the same seller, a Buick straight eight, one of the engine configurations I've not owned yet.

@nuttinnew Cue mik repeating again how much he loves these conceptually, but they are at least 80bhp down on where they need to be.....

@Sundayjumper Like the pickup. I was intrigued by the Buick straight 8 and it's "Fireball" moniker - I see they coaxed 124bhp from that version. :shock:

I kinda want this instead though - solid walnut bits! 8-)
