@TheBreadmonkey they were 50 years too late to steal a march on the fruit based car!

@Rob_l @TheBreadmonkey @darac Green lettering? I guess it's not Edd's, his has blue writing! ;)

@chloeraccoon @TheBreadmonkey @darac no, Edd wasn't born when these came out. They made a few for promotional work in the 70s based on minis.

@Rob_l @TheBreadmonkey @darac Yes, Edd has restored one. His has blue lettering though

@chloeraccoon @TheBreadmonkey @darac thanks, didn't realise. Only really followed him when he started out as he lived down the road from us, started on Beetles, then the sofa....

@Rob_l @TheBreadmonkey @darac He made videos about on his youtube channel, his had a steering fault, if you let go of the wheel, it would shoot off left (into a field..). It was interesting to see. Plus of course, for Edd, he can't complain about the head room! ;)

@chloeraccoon @TheBreadmonkey @darac I'll have to take a look later, thank you for that. There was one at Beaulieu motor museum we saw on a school trip, I'm guessing Edd probably did too being a car nut, and not far from the new forest.
