If that's all that's stopping you, you could always add some extra doors.
Come on Mick, you know it makes sense

Ha ha ha! Brilliant! Now, if you can manage the same thing but even longer, with a twin rear axle, you've got yourself a sale!
And a supercharger.

Don't go for the middle doors. A real strecht only has 4 or 5 doors, with just a piece of body with a window in it. Would be a very cool project! There are some people who have done this with mini's, seen a english dude on tv once.
Leather, leccy windows and mirrors, snowcap, foglights, open air filter, black roof upholstery. What more do you want? >a 2.3 turbo!

Oddly it has some sort of strange appeal! I reckon it'd be a pig to drive however, but if you got enough power, it'd make drifting somewhat more interesting!
Good photoshop work btw.

With a saloon you can put a boomerang antenna on the boot!

You guys are so demanding...
The double axle makes the boot hang out too far. Then again, maybe you could put a jacuzzi in there.

I blame
www.volvo300mania.com . I've always
liked 300s, but this is getting to be silly.
Maybe I should buy another 2CV after all
... ...anyone want to buy a Redline.
P.S. Only joking, of course...

Hello, my name is Cornholio and I am a volvo300mania-holic.
OK, this is the last one. I didn't like it with four wheels at the back, so I propose that
this should be Mick's new car. Someone else will have to put the stickers and lights on 'cos I'm not allowed.
