Yes, the Carmichael attempt to bring the FT6 into the S3 era.
While I like the appearance of the S2 based FT6, like the base S3, this leaves me, not merely cold, but repulsed.

I'd happily give that a home.

Nice find, if it weren't rare would make a nice camper!

No, that "accolade" goes to the contraption that was doing the rounds on Ebay a few years back with the leather sofa built into a sort of extension on the back...
