I've never seen one of those before. That would definitely get some attention as it can't exactly be common.

When I worked for the BBC, one of our mechanics rolled one just like that, into the well manicured front garden of the cottage that adjoined the workshops. It was a customer's car that had only come in for a service and some minor paint rectification work. Best bit was that he managed to roll it on a perfectly straight section of smooth road, just by wiggling the steering wheel a bit. I was following him back from the pub in my A60 and enjoyed the whole thing at close quarters.
The customer saw the funny side and accepted a large wad of cash in exchange for their wrecked car, its engine went into a loaf caravette which went pretty well with that fitted.
The bloke who rolled the car got out once it came to rest, upside down in that tidy garden. He wasn't hurt but man, was he ever embarrassed.
The moral of that is make sure the rear dampers aren't even slightly worn if you plan to make slalom-like manoeuvres in a Type 4.

Yep I`d agree with that for 1E! Doors look pretty well shot at the bottom, but you`d expect that its a fiat.
