I saw this pic on one of my friends on Facebook. I like the idea, even if the cars not my cup of tea Smile

Wow that must have taken some serious effort to make that. Looks pretty cool, would be mad if you just saw that driving down the road

Not really.

You go to shows, you now have somewhere to put all the stuff you take instead of cramming it onto the rear seats and damaging them. You also have something totally unique which is highly likely no one will replicate. And it't not particularly expensive to do either.

I considered doing it to my 306 three years ago when I did all the work on it, and putting a 40" TV inside the trailer with a proper 5.1 surround installation inside but gave up on it because the TV's were about £1200 and the risk of theft.

Now, however.....

edited for accuracy then Smile

looks expensive to me, another car, alloys, bodywork, respray, spoiler.. that stuff doesnt come cheap.

but either way, we both have completely different views on car modifying as we have found before so to avoid an off topic argument lets agree to disagree Smile

I think with the one above it would be expensive, but It wouldnt be as expensive to say replicate your car Kersh as its still pretty standard looking at the back. So all youd need is another 206 with a smashed up front, cut it in half, take the roof and windows off. flatten it over and your pretty much done. It would probably be easier if you had a trailer chassis and just weld the shell onto that so you have the towing arms already in situ.

It's not an argument but people on here make too many assumptions. If they guy was a panelbeater/bodywork man then all it'd cost is parts and paint.

Cost of written off CC £800-1000 max? Sell interior, doors, roof, all mechanicals in fact everthing down to the bare shell probably get your money back maybe even in profit. Then 2 alloys, tyres and a spoiler.

A car like that is often sponsored too so he may not even have paid for those.

Here's another one, obviously the paint job is s**t but there's loads of potential for the trailer for someone will skills and a bit of imagination.
