Spotted this the other day, what do you guys think.

This thing sounded the goods, big brakes, lots of satin black, zorst tips, wheels. Has a carbon fibre looking rear window.

Looks like the child of a ute and a wagon that got together at a BnS Show.

Not to my liking at all, canopy just looks too similar to a wagon shape. Obviously what they're trying to achieve, just not really working in my eyes.

It looks to me like another sandman.... but they decided to call it a sportsvan... considering a sandman is a ute with a canopy on it....

Love it but if i was going to do it id want it done properly and blended into the bodywork so it doesn't look like an add on.

I don't mind it and I like the black zorst tips but at the end of the day it's just a ute with a canopy on it.

From a practicality point of view its almost useless as is, very hard to get things out of the back if they are up the front of the ute. Forget tool boxes you could never get to them.

Recessed gull wing doors would be an idea, would make it more practical and would look pretty cool on the job site with the doors up. Doors with a tinted glass option would also be handy so you could see out of the thing. Glass should be recessed so its inline with the outer panel. I think its good just not real practical as is in the real world if its being used for work.
