Hi

I've been following his build thread on German Look, I even tossed up painting my bug the same blue.

It will be an interesting ride, not sure how it will handle with that much rear track, much like the 3 wheeler on Mr Bean I suspect.

Imagine taking that on at the traffic lights. I bet you'd get a good view of that wide rear end.
