Well, nobody identified widebody's pic of the classic Fiat Multipla. I thought I would mention it before it was forgotten.

I'm hoping somebody can guess that green, English contraption that white87911 posted. I have not got a clue. I even resorted to Googling after clicking through all my files, and just can't get it. Must be some kinda one-off item!!

Yes it s a "one off" it was made in 1968 and the project was financed by 2 brothers from Switzerland.

You can find the answer by using Google and the clues I provided.

Beaulieu is the correct current location of the car.

Okay, I thought I would cheat and just go through the Beaulieu Museum index of cars. Nothing. Nada.

So here is a suggestive McDonalds sign to torment you.

My first car was an Austin A35 Van in grey like the Wallace and Grommit one.

My second car...

1966 Morris Mini Minor
849cc, fitted with the following extensive improvements to its performance...
Two white stripes of tape on the bonnet for increased speed, special grill with additional lights, Peco exhaust with large single pipe for extra noise and power, rev counter in front of the driver - visible through the steering wheel, special bracket to lower the steering wheel towards the driver, Dunlop Groundhog radial ply tyres, centrifugally feathering engine fan to reduce drag and increase power at high revs, large stromberg carboretter for increased power and fuel consumption.

Maximum speedometer reading (wildly optomistic) 90 mph

Even with the answer, I still can't get any hits on google!! That must be one really obscure item, white! Any more pics, from other angles?

Sorry, No ther photos, All I have is a photo of the Car name and a 3 paragraph description of the car that was posted in front of it a Bealieu.

If no one gets it by 8:00 pm EST, I will post a scan of the information.

To find reference of it on Google, you need to know the engine, what is was used for and where it is.

Now that is just about spelling it out for you!
