 No, leave the steelies as they are! They look spot on. 

£2.5k seems fruity though, even with the low miles. Maybe their excuse to break it when ‘forced to because of timewasters’. 

those are metric wheels, and there have been no new metric tyres made in 25-odd years..... especially in 160z6x315 to suit a metro.

you can still get 12 inch tyres though in a variety of sizes!

Why would you spend thousands on that, when for a couple of hundred, you could have a very good chance of a Cadillac?  'Tis lovely though.

I can't take the credit for this, it was originally spotted by @Mr_Bo11ox months ago. The same dude has been trying, unsuccessfully, to punt it on ever since and I reckon it's so good that it's worth a re-post from time to time.

 

The best pic is this one, where it becomes clear that he couldn't even be arsed to stick the caravan properly in the middle of the flatbed FFS:

And where in London can you buy a bijou, pied-a-Terry-and-June compact one bedroomed duplex linked luxury apartment with extensive waterside views for £29,995?

There is certainly some sort of appeal to living in one of these. Probably the sort of appeal that wears off after 19 days when you try and have a crafty J Arthur in the shower, slip in the wooden bucket and your purple headed womb broom pokes through the rotten window frame and you expose yourself to Sean Bean there, causing him to throw his fag into those gas bottles and you ending up in A&E trying to explain away the 3rd degree burns on your custard launcher to a frowning nurse and your now homeless wife.

Sounds like a gritty, contemporary retelling of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em.

A rusty, wheezy museum piece of half-arsed load carrying capacity from a brand that is universally despised and LOLd at. And a Vauxhall Carlton.

I've seen some pretty clever photography in my time, but capturing a mid-flight, upside down goose pissing on your neighbour's car is going to take some beating.

I'll never tire of seeing the 'CAMPER LORREY'. I know we are fortunate to see some extreme examples of shite-based fruitcakery on this thread but that ludicrous cauldron of tramps jizz is one of the all time greats. Just what is the fucking advantage of it? I have spent my entire morning commute more than once racking my brains looking for a single plus point to having a little wanky caravan permanently mounted to a fucking 7.5 tonne flatbed truck. But the best i can manage is that you could perhaps make a small garden on the flatbed and bring that with you on hols if you are mad for gardening. But even then, how are you gonna get worms and bugs and things into the soil? You'd have to keep topping up the friggin lawn as well as the fuel and oil man.

Surely there must be a way of getting modern equivalent sized tyres onto the rims...
