The best car I have ever seen!!!!

[jon_d_h]

I saw this limited edition 6R4 that someone is driving around in near me.

What you think!!!!

 

[the_prophet]

fpmsl!!!

 

[LFCJosh]

i love v6's

 

[Ben.]

i pray thats a piss take

 

[ukaskew]

Serious potential

Does he have an XJ220 donor car out back ready to drop the engine in?

 

[StevenMc29]

even has a rear door into the engine. excellent

 

[E11OOT]

Guys come on, i know it's not to everyones taste, but at least you can admire the skill and craftsmanship that has gone into it.

 

[Jonff]

PMSL! What a stunning motor that is.

 

[jon_d_h]

I think he is planning on keeping the standard 1.1 engine so it will go abit faster. He has even cut the rear air intakes so the back doors can open and cut the petrol cap in half so he can get petrol in.

Its fast though!

It looks utter s**te, but with quite a bit of work it could actually be made to look mental.
I've always wanted to start a 6R4 project but the expense is phenomenal. Can cost over 20K to build a proper replica with the correct engine and running gear.
IIRC for the engine you can get a V8 out of an old Range Rover and chop a couple of pots off the end. Might save a few quid.

I prefer the XJ220 idea, got to be at least one down the local scrappy, right?

PMSL. You gotta post that on BarryBoys.

thats what rover did but you can fit all eight like the rallycross cars ran..

I see they've covered fuel filler.

I see they've covered fuel filler.

I was wondering about that too.
How do they put petrol in? :S

 

[Englebert]

Top secret WRC tech IIRC.

 

[Jon.L]

erm spacers and that would be mint

 

[VeinAST]

+1 or I will on your behalf lol!

[Englebert]

If you want to do it yourself...

[AhmedRSi]

Back doors now useless...

 

[geordieracer]

Do people even read the thread, or look at the pic then post? You can quite clearly see the intakes have been cut so the doors still open, and the petrol filler cap has been cut in half so he can still put petrol in. Its all mentoned in the thread.

All very well but look at the front edge of the back doors...

How do you expect them to open when the bodykit is still hard up against the back of the front door?!

Think you just owned yourself with that post!

 

[Goders172]

They see me Rollin, They Hatin

 

[jesus]

pmsl@it being 5 door and having the bodykit cutout because of it!

 

[Alex H]

Brilliant really, was laughing so hard last night I couldn't reply. Really does amaze me that people like this exist.

 

[fuel_slut]

O M G! That is the funniest thing/car/shed I have ever seen! hahahah

 

[iimushroomzii]

Lovely

 

[cat171]

Fpmsl !!!

 

[jesus]

Love the cold air feed to the rear passengers

 

[@rt]

600MM Spacers and it will be reet! - as long as he gets some hubcentric ones!

 

[Ian_182]

What a beaut

 

[Nick172Cup]

Done well!

 

[Christopher]

Words fail me.

F*cking funny though!

Why are you defending this heap of s**t? :quiet:

I don't give a flying f**k if the doors still open thanks to some blind eyed hacksaw movements, it looks like the ideal replica for someone who doesn't know what they really look like.

 

[ben_r1]

Surely a wind up

 

[Ben.Block]

Looks mint!

The yellow bit is not attached to the door, so it will open and swing above it. Only the red 'air intake' is attached to the door.

 

[jon_d_h]

Just to let you all know, I posted this car up on Barryboys.co.uk to see what they though and so far it has won "shed of the week" and may even be a contender for "shed of the year"

It is by far the worst thing I have ever seen anyway!

 

[pagey6005]

Still a k-series engine so it'll overheat after a mile!
