Worst kit car ever/

  1. Apologies if this has been posted before

    Worst kit car ever?


    "..This beastly home-built car was spotted in Britain readying for its road-worthiness inspection. Did it pass? Let's just say when a crowd of inspectors gathers to laugh at your car, it's not a good sign.

    We've never quite seen a vehicle so complete in a homage to misplaced optimism, but the builder fully expected it to pass, despite the leaky brake fluid and the drive shaft grinding against the chassis. Also, the utterly laughable bodywork which would make any inspector worth his salt question every nut and bolt on the car. Too bad, as it's reportedly got a Cosworth under that bumpy hood and the running gear actually looks decent.


    But, after laughing at the effort, the inspectors put a prohibition order on the car and told the builder it would only be able to leave the lot on a trailer. Ouch..."

  2. It looks like something Topgear would build, but good effort.

    That looks like someone let Stevie Wonder lose with a pond liner and some superglue.


    Excellent security though - who would nick that?

    What a tremendous effort, obviously the owner didnt know what to expect at a VOSA site, as the inspectors at all of them are generally the most anal, obnoxious and conceited ******ers you're likely to meet, anyone who has been for an SVA test or even a VIC check will agree!

    Looks like he's nearly mastered the bodywork!

  9. Bit of a generalisation. I took a car for a VIC check once to our local centre, it was much like going for MOT, sit in the waiting room for 40 minutes, there's your certificate, thank you very much, goodbye.

    The 2 centres nearest to me are notorious it seem, and are pedantic regarding painted lines on their floors, put one foot the wrong side of the their marked lines and your a dead man! and SVA testing or whatever it is now, is a whole different ballgame, no common sense/discretion ever applied.

    Boy Racer pulls up next to a Bay Window with a 2.2 Scooby in the back and get pwned....

  14. Looks like something out of mad max :-/ all it needs is a bloke sat on the roof with a Mohican :thumbsup:
     
  15. Yea but if you pulled up beside it you would find it hard to pull off cos you will be laughing so much at them.

    Could imagine it would be a bit like whackey races, bits off car falling off as it speeds away.

  16. Looks a bit like the gangster car leepu made a while ago. The one that was destroyed by Podzilla at VW action a couple of years ago.
    Looked a lot better afterwards. :D

    Looks good from the front - like a shark. :)
    Did he do the bonnet by repeatedly slamming it on the engine?

    I like it. Anyone got contact details to buy the kit?
     
  20. OH C"mon ,give the dude a break ,it may be his prototype? I mean ,I expect he paid for an inspection ? next time round he may have ironed out a few of the initial "reasons for refusal to issue a cert of roadworthiness",and if he actually drove it there ?well something was working so hat off to a.n.other potentially great English designer ,I say .
