OMG! What An Ugly Kit Car! by Nobody: 8:24pm On Apr 30, 2009
Saw this "creation" on Barry Boys.

It was at a VOSA testing station.
VOSA is a government body in the UK, that tests kit cars (cars built from bits and pieces) and passes them as fit to be driven on the public roads, thereby allowing such cars to be registered with the DVLA (equivalent of the United State's DMV).

The VOSA also inspects imported cars, before they can be registered in the UK (type approval).

Needless to say, this car was so bad, it was condemned! How the VOSA officials managed to keep their faces straight was commendable. It's impossible to tell what this car was build from, but gosh! It looks like it was built out of wire, then clay was moulded round it, that bonnet is so lumpy, it looks like a soft suitcase that was overstuffed, sat upon to get the zipper to work, then it burst open at the sides!

The VOSA inspectors wouldn't allow the owner to drive it away from the premises, it was that bad. It was only allowed to leave their premises on a trailer. How the owner managed to drive it that far without getting busted beats me.

We may not build great cars in Nigeria, but what we do build sure as hell doesn't look like this!

I'll let the pictures do the talking:

Re: OMG! What An Ugly Kit Car! by Nobody: 1:04am On May 01, 2009
^^^ Yep, that car is still running, (somewhat) leaving a dense cloud of smoke in its wake.

Brakes were leaking hydraulic fluid too, so it wouldn't err, stop properly.
