Spectacular spacer use!
Seen some cars a few times with spacers and thought that looks a bit iffy but this one finally takes the biscuit.
How long must the wheel bolts be

They wont be long wheels bolts they will just be the bolts that come with the spacers themself, every spacer will be bolted to each other. If he hit a bad pot hole surely the bolts whould sheer or strip out the hub.

Has nobody seen an MR2 355 rep upclose? I've seen one running big fuckoff spacers on the back comfortably as big as those in the first pic, not quite as stupid as bolting a series of spacer together but shocking all the same!

I don't even think they're thick enough to be spacers with bolts in. I reckon they're just hubcentrics with massssssive bolts!

It's not, it's a Stilo. Unless he's fitted Fiat windows, and dashboard instruments, and ignition key and air con controls
