| Seems a complete waste of a really nice E30 cab.
Looks awful now, and would be rubbish off road as you would be too scared of death if you went belly up.
Looks well done though.
So IMHO its 0/10 for the idea, and 10/10 for how you have done what you said you would.
Scores high on the comedy factor though, must be funny as hell cruising through town of a night seeing what the drunks make of it  | |

Maybe that's the whole point? I wouldn't dare go off-road in it, but it would be amazing just to cruise about in. I bet you'd get more funny looks than if you were driving anything else!

| College prom is a better way of meeting hot 18 year old single chicks than weddings, the bride tends to already have a boyfriend | |

| I pity the use of what does look to be a bloody tidy donor Beemer - but the general idea of '**** it, i've had this idea and i'm doing it' is awesome.
Its not really going to be very good at doing anything other than turning heads - but if you're in to that then fair play!
Assume it will pass the MOt whilst its still in the car park though
