Talking of purposely manufactured cars, I give you the Japanese "Micraguar". Recently sold at Kings Lynn auctions :o

Saw something similar to this in Bradford, I laughed so hard I nearly crashed. Props for the effort put into it though.

That has been for sale for ages!

I may have been partly responsible for it too. I had a set of 4 front 224s for my 2nd 3.0Si that I had been thinking of fitting with non-runflats but then I got a set of 295s that I preferred. So back in September 2018 I sold them to someone who was selling his MC and wanted to sell his wheels separately. :lol:
Coupes because stunning!

And it's only £139,950 which is a bargain for an E86 at the present time (the zero is obscured by the A pillar in the photo I'm presuming). If it had the wheels sorted Lord knows what it would fetch! :D

I do like the 'retro' feel of the dealer, though. A 1980s Merc, a 1995 ish Mondeo st220 and I'm sure that is a mk6 Escort in the background :D :thumbsup:

    If you scratch the surface, the seller does not have a good name. I know someone who went to view a Mitsubishi Evo, he said he’s never seen so many nails in one place and they do have a lot of cars.

    Good point.
    The idea was for the worst cars you can find, then potentially give a "shed of the week" prize. I thought the prize could be the same as that for picture of the month competition (that is sweet FA) :D
    But, hey as long as it's entertaining I couldn't really give a toss :P

    Given up the V8 idea for various reasons (mainly emissions and lack of decent cars around).
    I forgot I did own a V8 once for a whole two weeks. It was a Rover SD1 vanden plas 3.5 which I was going to restore. Then I sobered up and realised nobody would want a restored SD1, I sold it pronto :thumbsup:
