I was trying to figure out what was wrong with it ... the too wide, too low profile tires make it LOOK like a kit car.

First order of business for the new owner should be a set of proper Dunlop rims or Halibrands with some nice, meaty side walls.

Ad says they made 12.
I sat in a white one when visiting Villa Rica a few years back.
Not much more than a big go kart with a body.
I could barely fit in it and there was nowhere for my feet.
Pretty uncomfortable for anyone 6' tall or over 200 pounds.
But a neat machine....for those that will fit in it.

I really like it.

Beautiful machine. I have no use for it, but I like to look.

Somewhere I have a photograph of me and Chuck Beck in front of one of those at the Chicago Auto Show (same year they introduced the XUV.) I think that car had the reverse paint scheme though. I still want one.

Yes, that is why I called them SVO Listers. SVO is Special Vehicle Operations at Avanti.
