This oddity!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAUXHALL-CARLTON-3-0-ESTATE-/291778703140?hash=item43ef5daf24:g:JlgAAOSwNsdXTbJX

Now this, to all intents and purposes is the one-off Viceroy Estate, made for the Queen - but that's documented, known of vehicle owned by an EBS clubmember. So this would appear to literally be a Carlton estate with a Royale front end. Odd!

Well, it's definitely that. It also appears to have fallen out of the ugly tree.

just think of it as a Monza Estate...

Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "cut and shut" ........

Hardly, it's bolt on panels. Makes it a Vauxhall Carlyle A cut and shut would be the two door Viva with a  mk2 Golf front end I saw at the Chelsea cruise 25 years ago. Very strange car.

You can do (and has been done, of course) the same with Carlton and Senny B

This one, on the other hand, will make you all wet with excitement....
