Good cod, Laughing I bet he had to tuna the engine up to carry the extra weight, at least he would have some scales to seebass the size of the problem. He better not cut some one up , he could get battered Embarassed

Sorry it just had to be done Wink

I've never heard of anything of this scale being done to a Corsa before...

Corsa Fishing, perhaps?

Okay...enough...

yes I found this whilst trawling the net, maybe I should drop him a line? maybe he comes from Whales? I hear in his spare time that he earns a living impersonating famous people, latest of which is Dolphin Lundgren.

Anyway, time to go now and have a glass of port.

at least he's no pikey! if anything, rather than being a big-mouth, he is quite shy and a little koi about his achievements. If you bump into him, remember to speak up as he's hard of herring.

With this project done, he's now angling for a Stingray or Barracuda to modify.

Seriously though, Buzzy Bee raised a valid point - is that thing even road legal? DVLA ahoy! (Had to get a marine-related pun in there somewhere!)

If the guy gets arrested, then all I can say is he haddock coming, even if he did only create the thing for the halibut.
