Amazing !! I love it, that’s always been one of my favorite cars ever; the original, of course. Now, regarding the restomod, I don’t like the wheels nor the exaggerated flares around the wheel wells.
One for Nico - the Autoforma Norrsken 🇸🇪🇳🇱🏁
It seems restomods are about as popular in the automotive sphere as independents in watchmaking, even if the concept is a tad different. Here a recent one that might be right up Nico’s alley, since it is based around the Volvo P1800ES, the famous ‘Snow wh...
I dig these restomods!!
I know Nico is a true Purist, but maybe he can make an exception here?? I can say Vlad rolling this all day long... Thanks for the post!

No thanks, no more BMW for me ... ever !
Don't get me wrong, I do love BMW but there are always these tiny details that bother me. Their infotainment system is a big NO for me and the non M-models have too many flaws for such expensive cars. Nothing beats a good old Renault or Renaultsport, chea...
Yes ! The Mini Clubman.
Same shit, basically a one series with a crappy suspension. Just like my 120d, i converted it to a 'van' to be able to put more stuff in the back. But being a 'van' I can't legally change the suspension, otherwise I would already have fitted a KW. The inf...
The spare wheel…
Omission is a standard approach nowadays to reduce weight and CO2 emissions 🤷🏻♂️ But understand your frustration and don’t get why the tire kit was incomplete 🤦🏻♂️
