This little gem is well on the way to being a proper car now, my mechanic friend has tinkered with the engine and reinstalled the seats and cockpit so I took it for a wash to see if the wind screen leaks (which it does) and took it on the Fen for a spin, what do you all think? This is my homage to the small car and quite fun to drive in its present state. Its a 1999 with a sordid past but it does clatter and chirp with zeal now LOL...(well its cute to me)
