Naked maybe, but i'm sure it looks much better without the stickers

Only big kids have stickers anyway

Doubt that could handle 4 ppl 70 miles a day tho...

Its done its fair share of hard work... has had several cars on trailers to various locations... NORTH yorkshire... Isle of wight for the rover etc.

C2C no chance.... something ECO friendly.... looking like a combo crewcab with LPG conversion....
