I was wondering what on earth was the issue, LHD with UK plates, can be done. Then I saw what was missing.....

Who knows if that's genuine or not. Curious.

I don't see a video, just a picture, but it's certainly not impossible to weld up the door, but A: why bother and B: without reclining front seats forwards, how can the rear seats be used?

If it's genuine, a whole chunk has been removed from the wheelbase. Either that or they have some how moved the b pillar and extended the front door in length.

To me the car definitely looks shorter overall.

As usual, I find B-B's posts almost impenetrable. TBH, I now ignore them, unless they're seriously upsetting more intelligible folk.

Notwithstanding, did find this pic on the web, although its original page is not available:

Obviously a sinker, or one of Matt's spare engines in the back.
