This sofa is fully street legal! It has an MoT and Vehicle Licence and is powered by a mid-mounted, unleaded A-series Mini engine.
Along with the Leopard skin upholstery, the unusual features include a pizza pan (complete with pepperoni pizza) steering wheel, hand operated drinks-can brake ‘pedal’, a chocolate bar to select the 4 automatic gears and a knee throttle which facilitates a feet-up (or down)driving position.
The front indicators are hidden inside two ornamental plant pots which come complete with a fern and a purple and yellow flower arrangement.
The bottle-top coffee table acts as a front bumper and supports a clock, housing the speedometer, a set of dodgy old videos (inc. ‘The Good the Bad and the Comfy’ and ‘Night of the Living Room Dead starring Peter Cushion and Sofa Loren!!) and a working black and white television.
