I have been trying to buy that for about 7 years!!!!

It cleaned up quite well - last time I saw it it had NOT FOR SALE in the window and was surrounded in grass on my mates next door neighbours garden.

DJ Motorsport conversion....

4x4 cossie

I believe it may even be 1 owner from new and the owner also has a ridiculoooos Reliant Kitten I understand.

I can remember looking at it for ages thinking WTF with the wheels and then I was informed and that was that - but the guy was never interested in selling it - he just wanted to leave it and do it in his spare time.

Its my ideal car - quick, small, fun, fast.

Converted my old pug 306 and my current 106, but the 106 is having big changes from its original conversion at AG.
