No kidding, do ya think maybe that's why Dizzy reffered to it as the "Ferrari Multipla"?

It's not the only Ferrari Multipla mashup out there in the wilds.

Of course. I took it for granted. Dizzy is german, if I am not wrong, so he must have seen some Multipla in the past...
The other you linked is explicitly named as such in the image title.

There is only one way to make a Fiat Multipla look good ..park a Catapillar D11N on top of it. :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I expected the Multipla being known internationally (as one of the ugliest things with four wheels that has graced the streets so far), so that it would not require any explanation or reference.

Looks to me, who knows absolutely nothing about cars at all, as though someone's dropped some small electric vehicle on to it from a great height, either that or it's a BBC 2 wildlife film on the secret mating rituals of automobiles ?  :angel:

Drifting a bit from the theme, but I always thought those triangular drink cartons were the perfect shape for a vehicle - a small, personal (1 - 2 persons) three-wheeled car ...

Tetrapaks!

Tetra in Copenhagen were one of my customers, they had a socking great shock and vibration table that was large enough to take a Mini I should think, not that they vibrated cars of course.

I recall they did a great lunch in their canteen as well.  ;D
