Not a bad effort I must say but the engine on the back seat shows all the problems of this type of conversion - the wall behind the drivers seat makes the cockpit very confined plus chain drive and a very high engine position. It's a shame the builder didn't opt for somehow installing it in the back onto the original 126 box.

But in fairness he says it was built as a competition car. Even though it seems to be road legal, he is right when he says "if you want a Sunday afternoon cruiser, this isn't it" (I paraphrase). If the primary objective is to get up a very steep hill in a very short time, it would be somewhat surprising if there was room for a family's weekly shop and three of your mates too!

I didn't even know it was road legal  I just assumed it was a track car. The wall in the back is too much for my liking, I would feel cramped and trapped but it's better that being gassed I suppose
