It doesn't look so much like a 6 wheel mini camper as a CJ-5 being 'rogered' by a caravan! Hmmm....do you think I've got a psychiatric problem? :?

A low production run super car was an Iso Grifo A3C. I really fancy one of those. Nicer looking than the Iso Rivoltta. Or as a pal of mine calls them the Oh so revolting. Or perhaps a Monteverdi. The only car made in Switzerland at the time. I saw a Reliant Sabre 4 last year in Calaise just getting on the ferry home. It was showing it's age in places but still a pretty car. A Dutton Phaeton with a Rover V8 was a car I fancied. I have heard of some being Rover powered but don't know what they handled like. The last thing is for it become a Dutton Fatal!! :lol:

That reminds me, there was a miniMETRO with a boot and that didn't seem to get beyond prototypes. A shame, as it would have given Austin-Rover something to compete with the booted version of the Corsa A:

But wait, there's a booted Corsa C too:

Chevrolet branded that one, sold like soap out there in Argentina, apparently.

Oh wow! A Metro with a boot,superb. Ah yes,typical south America mix matching,probably the booted Corsa has a VW engine in.
