WTF am I looking at?

Went hiking this afternoon, and this was at the trail head:

@AdverseMartyr Nissan micra cc - convertible roof

[CarsOfFortLangley]

@AdverseMartyr baby porsche doo doo di doo doo, baby porsche doo doo di doo doo

[AdverseMartyr]

@pip-bip you mean it’s not a Porsche Cayenne! I feel so betrayed.

@AdverseMartyr

Micra K12 coupé convertible. That kind of car was common once but not any more.
The Peugeot 206CC was the first of the modern ones and for a while they were all at it.

@AdverseMartyr Whatever it is, I want one.

How about a Ford StreetKA!?




To mark he collaboration of Ford with the Thunderbirds film, and to promote the film. A pink StreetKA.
94bhp, 1.6 litre.

@Svend Is it named Desire?

@Svend I really want to 1.6 Ecoboost swap a Ka someday. Or I guess 1.5 Ecoboost now.

A hypothetical Ka ST should have had a 1.0L Ecoboost and Ka RS should have had the 1.6. What a glorious alternate reality it would have been!

Can I interest you in a DJ Motorsport Ford Ka.
Ford wheel drive, 300bhp Sierra/Escort Cosworth YBT 4x4 engine

@AdverseMartyr Being the car name perfectionist I am, I must mention that it's a Nissan Micra C+C.

[DSM_OR_DIE]

@Svend And with a Mitsubishi AWD system! How have I not heard of this? It sounds just like my plan to EVO swap a Mitsubishi Cyborg, but unlike my dream car, this one is actually happening.

@Sam-Blockhan is it pronounced "plus" or "ploos"?

[Svend]

@DSM_OR_DIE
To be fair, this was some time ago.
The magazine I found this car featured in, Cars and Car Conversions, is from April 2002.

There have been several done over the years.
Do you like the small Ford Fiesta van?

Well it won't surprise you for the U.K. only, namely for BT (British Telecom), they made the KaVan

BUT, as you mention Mitsubishi.
How about a Mitsubishi Colt CZC?

Well, if you said that then you’d be wrong- it’s not a Micra in Japan. It’s a March. I have no clue why it’s different here but it is.

@AdverseMartyr Nissan Micra convertible!

[AdverseMartyr]

@RallyDarkstrike I'm afraid you didn't look closely. It's clearly a Porsche Cayenne. It says it in big letters across the back.

Turns out, de-Nile isn't just a river in Egypt but is also the state of mind of this owner.

This feels like something I would do.

[RallyDarkstrike]

@AdverseMartyr Clearly!
