spoted a three wheeler mini, it's like a roadster with only one wheel @ the back.

it's in the workshop of the guy that came to give me some advice and a quote on sorting nippys (my cooper) paint/body work.

the chase on the three wheeler is rotten, but he has got another three wheeler mini which is in bits, with a good chase. there was only three ever made apparently... all of which by his dad.

Deano, There was one made by a guy down south somewhere, he had it for sale on ebay last year, think his name was "waspy" quite well known for doing wild and wacky things with a a mini. The back of it was made to look like a boat with stripped wooden deck on the back. will try and dig out some pics, sure i "borrowed" some off his website.

Sorry to hear about your rear screen and mirror. Just what these yobs find funny in doing things like this.They have NO BRAINS so don't say they are bored out of them. Let us know if you see the nippy when you call. Better still take the camera just in case.

£60 exess for the screen, work kindly paid for it and i should pick up a wing-mirror for a 5'a @ the scrap yard, thats what the last one cost me.

I think thats brilliant for someone confined to a wheelchair, esp. if that person used to be a motorcyclist:)

I took that photo on my phone camera on the way into Wrexham one day just to show Deano how they had modified them from the one he had
