Also did anyone see the Riley Elf that had been grafted onto a BMW 3-Series. It made me sick so i couldn't photo it... Sorry to the owner.


Noah it was different and well constructed. Wouldn't own it but it was not that bad.

I'm with Noah on this one. Just one question - WHY?


You could say that about a lot of other cars out there. Even though its not my cup of tea its been done well and not bodged like you see all to often on here and other websites. There must have been a reason for doing it but what that reason was who knows. Maybe one pint too many or something else.

I agree with you Noah a Metallic grey or another dark colour would have suited it better.

But if wanted a Beemer then buy a Beemer, don't trash a perfectly good car for no point. I am all for each to their own and I wouldn't think it stupid if it looked just as awful but a none description body kit. I just don't see the point. But it's his car to trash so I guess as long as it keeps him happy in broadmoor.........


'trash'. Man that car was absolutely MINT. FAR from trash. Everything on it was done to such an absolutely ridiculously good standard. Not everybody wants the same thing from a Mini, if you want to go to a Mini show and walk around and look at a load of bogo 80's mayfairs and other Minis that are modified exactly the same then I'm pretty sure you'd complain about that too.

It wasn't for me at all, but I could utterly appreciate the crazy ridiculous attention to detail that had gone into that build, its an absolute work of art.

I am amazed you can read my mind! You are obviously a man of genius as you know my thoughts so well. Please forgive me for having an opinion oh great one :rolleyes:

For your information I love seeing a whole range of minis from totally standard to completely modified, what I don't like is an abortion of a car which IN MY OPINION that was. However as far as I am aware the British Nazi party didn't stage a coup last night and as of 4.15pm I am allowed to voice said opinion. It seems to me a bit like the emperors new clothes, if you don't like something, some people on here try to shout you down. I am sorry if it upsets you but I don't like it and no amount of suggestions as to what I do and don't like (through your mystical powers oh great one) will change that, but as I said before it was his car and he is happy with it then what does it matter what others think, but I do wish he wouldn't make my eyeballs burn by bringing it out in daylight.

Calling somebody else's car is downright rude and ignorant no matter what it is. The day you build a car of a quality even 1/4 as good as that then your opinion will be valid to me. You're massively contradictory too, I never said I was a genius, I was just stating my opinion, which as we have just seen from your pre-pubescent Hannah Montana hissy fit, you're all for :thumbsup:

'Trash'. :rolleyes:

Yet again you are trying to read my mind. What do you know of the cars I have built? Have you built a car that has beaten Jaguar land rover, Bentley and Citroen works cars? I doubt it, have you been awarded best engineered car against such opposition? No I doubt it. If people don't like my cars, fine, I wasn't criticising the engineering just the appalling taste. You are welcome to come and see the cars I build but you wouldn't appreciate them as they are original designs and not crappy copies of other people's ideas. You are so clueless it's painful.
