The Purple Turtle Has Landed

This sexy little shit-box on wheels presented itself to us after someone read a plea I wrote on facebook to find a car worth as much as a bag of crisps. The Purple Turtle is a 1998 847cc Daihatsu Cuore crap heap and it's owner was willing to let it go for a packet of smokey bacon after finding out what it was required for. Here is a picture of the transaction taking place.

It has no brakes (metal on metal), a broken drive shaft, shit tyres, and even it's own plant life growing in the form of some sort of bean sprouts I found coming through the floor. Long live the PURPLE TURTLE!!!

We have a car we bought for a packet of crisps, and a hot dog costume. To Mongolia!
