The construction included outlines for headlights, windscreens and a VW badge. “It was incredibly realistic looking and it looked like you could get into it and drive away once you'd swept the snow off,” one local told media. To add to the joke, the car was built in a strict no parking zone, which attracted the attention of traffic wardens the next morning, who swiftly ticketed the vehicle.
