Some days ago a firned told me about a "strange semi-toy vehicle very similar to yours" casually discovered in a farmer's shack in Vinci (yes the hometown of Leonardo da Vinci ;D).
I asked him the favor to take some picture and when i seen it could not believe my eyes :o:

As you know, the C5 was not imported in Italy, and in addicton to my C5 i know only another was in Italy (http://camp0s.blogspot.it/2010/01/il-mitico-sinclair-c5.html).
Would be very interesting to know the story of this C5, and how it was in Italy ...
The farmer said they intended to restore it, but i guess he has no idea what that strange piece of plastic really is ...
:D

Wow - would be good to find out how it ended up where it did :)

It looks like it had some indicators removed as well.
I agree with it could have an interesting journey.............................................
