I expect that they will be getting a few parts from the X90, or going for them sometime too. Slam one of them for something different.

An old girlfriend had a Mighty Boy, it was like driving a deathtrap, had fear of safety when amongst tall traffic. Small car syndrome????????

I saw one in some pics once that was done up as a B&S ute... It had a huge alloy bullbar, mag wheels, spotties, sports roll bar, and a huge muffler...

come to think of it i may have found it on these forums before the server crash (are we allowed to talk of that event???)

Man... Mightyboys are awesome. Can't say I'd ever want to drive one - wouldn't be much use to me anyway, but they're like a japanese Mini.

There's a guy down in Margaret River who converted his Mightyboy to electric. Apparantly it goes pretty good.

Of course a Liberty sedan would kick it's arse... :p
