Imagine if it was involved in a crash which would break it into pieces... accident investigators would have a hard time working out how many vehicles were involved.

Those are fart enhancers. You won't find them on the latest S class. This is true innovation.

Some people are never satisfied - it DOES have seat belts. It also has a lot more tread, & looks to be in much better condition than many of the 'boy racer' cars that some here in Aus drive...
note - the above comment is laced with a heavy dose of sarcasm, & should NOT be read with any real degree of seriousness...

I love the ingenuity- the steering wheel is lol! Post apocalyptic kit car? Jed Clampett & the 'Doc would be proud! Love to see them build a hog (Harley) with the same theme.
