If that blue one is real and not CGI it must have some substantial floor pan re-enforcement to stop it folding in the middle. It's very real, was a prototype but in 2006 and used for some sort of special event, but I've never been able to find much about the build other than it's by an outside design house. Have a YouTube tour |

Good to know it's real and the seats are great.

It is, but could you imagine the VERY stern letter from Crewe? Aaah yes, I was forgetting that they have NO sense of humour 🤬 If one would reply that the conversion had been carried out by Rock, Thorpe and Watson Ltd, Crewe would begrudgingly approve...  Actually, it was done by Sbarro. www.rrab.com/sbarro.htm |

There was a Trabant Kübel that was produced.  Also Wartburgs have a frame under the body. So that could also be a possible candidate. |

"Dear Sir, In reply to your letter pointing out that my Rolls Royce, "Just isn't done, old boy," may I inform you that immediately after taking delivery, I popped down to Mulliner Park Ward, to discuss my requirements. Their response was, "Wow man, a Jolly, that's wicked cool. Leave it with us bro." I therefore feel it is to your own subsidiary towards whom you should be directing your ire. Yours faithfully, Wicked Cool Guy."  |

There was this immaculate if slightly camp Jolly in the Fiat showroom on the Champs-Élysées when I last went |

Talking of fiat, just spotted this on Instagram...  Loving the wheels, almost look like deep dish Revolution's |
