As daft as it is, I kinda love that thing^ Like a Comic book car.Also check out the BX derived dashboard! and what's with the badly finished bit of welding and the door hinge to the rear of the side glass?Anyone know anything about who did this custom job? There doesn't appear to be any form of a boot opening (unless the whole body lifts up 'funny car' style)

Bad welding? You didn't look at the Range Rover pictures above I take it then? :D Ace pics Matt.

God I want that Robin!been so long since i've seen a nice one on the road.....GR9 plate as well!

Posted

I'm guessing that Andy Saunders customised the BX....

Posted

funnily enough, one of the local Robins I remember from growing up (A lovely brown Doris 750) had a PUF rego. nice!

Posted

Oi, what about the 626 then??!

After the initial moment of shock and confusion about the black thing, that was my reaction. Looks like a low-spec one, pretty scarce even when new I would have thought.

Theres a Chevy Day Van just like that in Leicester. Wonder if its the same one......

That Allard is stunning. IIRC they all use either Chrysler or Mercury V8s, could be wrong.
