Why on earth would you do this?

Would you drive it?

To get more boot space? And no I wouldn't.

As for the Grange Discovery that's wrong on every level.

Example 1 is horrifyingly bad.
As for driving it, not a chance I'd even get in the passenger seat.

I’d like another SL
I’d like a 1959 Eldorado
But not in the same car, although I suppose it would save on road tax! :rolleyes:

Problem solved, this guy can build you one :D
