Interesting choice. Will you use the trailer part for anything exciting?

[Burnham]

where the hell do you park that?!! Its certainly different

[boRED S2upid]

Wow thats some machine. One of my mates has a Fiat Chincichento I recon he could park it in the back of your motor!

[itsmymumscar]

Do you hire out for funerals

Thats thing is massive!!

[froddan]

Where did you get the windowscape? I'd love one just like that on my chevy van.

[eamonnschevy]

bada bing! we use it to go to American Car shows and motor sport days, truck n caravan together are 42ft long and its fun when we overtake regular cars n vans..


Burnham.. wherever i want it's too big for the authorities to lift and tow away, kidding aside... its easy to park yer just need a bigger space.



boRED S2upid buck is approx 8ft x 4ft 6ins measure the fiat would look cool in the back handy for getting petrol if i ever run out lol


itsmymumscar, lol i wanted to, offer it as a flower car, but the wife said i was sick and banned me from doing it, I've done a few proms with it though, always causes a stir..

froddan. i bought it when we were on holiday in the states, they are way to expensive over here, £80+ but i think we paid about $40 in the states pm me I've got buddies in the USA or we're off to the states at the end of the year..so i can get you one..

i know its not the usual kind of motor you have here on pistonheads but its got a V8 and is limited to 130mph, sat nav reading not speedo, that stops at 100 lol

Thanks for the offer, but unfortunately I won't be in the UK much longer. I have to try and find them in Sweden, or order them there from USA.
