I dont think its that bad to be honest. The work that has gone into it is pretty good.

Sorry to disappoint you, but this is clearly a photoshop job!

But I agree, completely ruined it!

I like it, completely pointless mind, and unpracticle extra storage space above the engine, but looks good imo.

cool, you but could roof mount the intercooler if done to an sc.

a poor photoshop though.

I like the concept, lots, but only if a sunroof version.

I love it
partly because its yellow
its very reminicent of the late '70s 4 seat hatchback Triumph TR7 prototype
some obvious draw backs though
1, it would be f...kin loud in there
2, it would be hot as hell
3, you would need some way of drawing air through the engine bay
4, what would you use the extra space for? keeping bacon butties warm?
on the whole though cool as f..k
we need more of this rather than just doing what is in fashion

In a weird way i kinda like that - but i cant see the point of it as the extra space cant be used and you lose space as you cant get the boot lid open - not that theres nuch space in a mk1 boot anyway :lol:
