    That's not actually built on a 308 chassis is it? Looks way too short.

    Kind of like a pgtt 205 GTI VW golf GTI hybrid.

    Much much better than their Mondial version, to me at least.

    Their 308 ‘365’ look body work was much better I think.

    Actually, 308 and 328 have long overhangs, and a short wheelbase; at 2,38m, the wheelbase of the 328 is actually shorter than the one of the "New Mini" (well, not so "new" after 15 years). But he might have shortened it further.

    One of the numerous Sbarro's fantaisies; I'd rather not comment, because I am not a fan, neither immediately nor by acquired taste.
    But I did one day hurt a swiss friend who was...

    Such long overhangs, that I'm not able to enter the nearby Rhine river ferry with the deep spoiler.

    As far as I remember, the wheelbase is as long, better said short, as that of the old Mini. They even share the same steering rack (with different track rods in length)

    Best Regards
