Think that car featured in an early issue (maybe #2) of Go Mini magazine? It's certainly a 'love it or hate it' one isn't it? I think the Jury's still out.....

I've seen that in the flesh so to speak, its even worse than the pics.

The exhaust pipes made me laugh, they look like Pizza Cutters, then you look inside and there is a tiny outlet into that big triangle thing

Besides from the owner, is there actually anyone out there who think its looks great? The only bit of it i like are the wheels.

The owner is called Jason Varley, and this was originally a mini One.
I also saw this in the flesh at Bingley Hall, It had people around it constantly, but whether they actually liked it or not Im not sure.

I think the colour may actually look nice on a normal mini, but the body kit spoils it completely. Im not sure though whether this version is better than the last attempt (animal kit ? ) - that was v ugly.

BUT I think the best feature of this car, as he has obviously gone to expense to get it ruined IMO is the magic tree air freshener thing !

Has anyone also checked the website ? http://www.autofashion.co.uk/jasons_bmw_mini.htm

I love the quote "Jason is one of those wonderful customers that is willing to accept ideas and suggestions, and simply sets a budget and leaves you to get on."

If I put down some money and came back to that I would be horrified !

Lots of monstrousities to see on that site. have fun browsing!
