I'll start this one off with a Monday morning quiz. I found this pic in an old album over the weekend. It's still on DVLA but hasn't been taxed since 1984. The body won't have rusted away.

It's a Status 365 and is based on the classic mini.
The Status company was formed by ex Lotus chief engineer Brian Luff and John Frayling.
Not the prettiest of cars IMHO but as you say the body won't have rusted away, not sure about the mini subframes though!
