for those not following banger of the week

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

the white vitara chassis corsa has been on ebay a few times.
would be fairly cool if it was made more professionally.not just a car shell plonked ontop and glued together lol.
i think the point of the ka is taking the worst possible off road vehicle and making it into a monster truck

haha I was waiting for that! alas it is true, the company has given me a ka to drive for work. I must say it is the most shoddy piece of junk out there! nasty to drive, badly built and just all round dodgy. as I said before, it belongs in a scrap yard, but whilst im getting free travel to and from work I probably shouldn't complain really lol
