The 'real' version of that does exist - it was parked at Hopwood Park services on the M42 last month...

What a fun thing to drive around in!

Yes indeedy - I've got models of both of them somewhere. The Outspan cars were based on Minis iirc and the Cadburys cars on Bedford Rascal van chassis...

Ah! a fellow Panasonic FZ18 owner. :thumbs: :lol:
Weren't these cars built by that bloke Ed who does the car programme with Mike Brewer. He built the motorised shed and sofa too if I remember correctly.

Everyone with money two burn would be sucked into buying one, just for the novelty.

They have one at the Beaulieu National Motor museum. It is built on a shortened Mini floorpan.
