    Sorry, it is a bad pic but as it was such a special vehicle, I had to share it anyway. Consider it a double challenge- the questions are 1) what is it 2) what was he thinking about.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    The first question was easy. The second question? A hearse for people who loved fresh air (bikers / cabrio drivers)? :p

    That was for sale on Donedeal recently, as far as I know it was built by John Pierse, a coachbuilder on Castleisland in Kerry.

    Was it converted back from a hearse? Certainly unusual!

    That W124 does look like it was originally a hearse, interesting conversion.There is another in Dublin.......not so succesful, in fact its probably unsafe !

    I suspected there might be a hearse connection alright.

    Personally, I'd rather be seen getting out of a sheep.
