sounds abit like a TT, terrible to reverse due to rear window and lousy mirrors.

my mozzie is low and suffers same problem with headlights.

but would a clubman front fit in the back?

Not in, but would probably fit pretty well over the back :w00t:

Think the glass hatch is about 80cm wide

the search for a mini based kit car that can fit a clubman front (amongst other things) in the back continues!

Might say the Midas's mirrors are excellent, as long as you're going forwards!

You can see car's pretty close behind you in both mirrors but no perspective for reversing.

Those new slopey back Smart cars look very close to MIdases for size - may be a bit to tall :w00t:

in which case, you need either a hustler, or a jiffy pickup

Phonix costs alot, but a reliant kitten van would be nice (again price is going up)

jiffy pickup would be fantastic, but again, price.

Scamp? Went to look at one once - I've seen more sophisticated coal bunkers, the styling is quite similar.

Used to one called the Gecko that looked interesting in a basic moke kind of way.

if it was going to be a scamp type, then the AMC Moke would be much better.

however, needs to have a roof and able to carry some bits!

but i cant find a decent amc cub cheap either!

i could have a decent estate (vaux, vw etc) for the price of em.

doing the roof is not a problem, just get a pick up one and mod that to fit, extend the front so it goes over the screen and your away.

however, as i have said, for the price that it would all cost, thats decent diesel estates.
