Smart lunacy
« on: 26 January 2008, 14:24:13 »

Have a look at this, I like it, I want one.

Why did they not do this from the factory?
Limited edition obviously;D

I might have had an accident when I watched this one.

I PMSL when his SWMBO started off ;D

And this one ties the two themes together nicely. If you thought a bike powered Smart was silly....

Something i've often wondered. ::) I'd prefer the Golf cart - instandard form.

As a youngster I always fancied the idea of a ‘sleeper’ I like the ford model A.
Wanted to put a v6 into an Anglia with a tatty body, but only ever put one in a Cortina Mk2 with a tidy body. Had a Bedfor cf van with a Ford v6 in it, that surprised a few. Not sure what a modern equivalent would be, any thoughts!

Modern one is a tough call. Need something that's likeable in a way but universally regarded as being cr@p.

I'd say Prius, but it falls over on the likeable bit. I would quite like to be an interloper to a prius owner's forum meet and see their faces when they find a dirty, polluting V8 in the back where the bank of AA batteries is supposed to be. ;D

One day I'll sneak a Turbo kit onto Mrs. KW's MX5 and have some fun with it.

Somehow! Mini Van with a V8 in the back, would be rear heavy and rear wheel drive so no good on the corners, but in a straight line!!!!!!!!!
