The sight of cars covered in snow might not be unusual in the current cold snap, but one made completely out of snow is most definitely a rarity.
This sporty looking number is the work of Mark Bashota, 42, who runs his own car valeting firm in Fosse Road South, in Leicester's West End.
The car took Mark and employees Alan and Luan more than six hours to complete during a slow work day on Tuesday.
"The original idea was to build a life-size Range Rover Evoke but it was too high, so we had to settle for something smaller but sportier," said Mark.
The lads used some old tyres and spare hub caps for the wheels, plastic sheeting for the "tinted" windows effect and a stick for the aerial.
A Ford badge from an old car was added as the finishing touch.
"None of us have any particular artistic talent but we gave it a go," said Mark.
"I think it looks good and the woman at the car sales reception where we work thought it was real. I've since added a £999 price tag, too.
"The whole thing was to attract customers and give families something to look at and talk about while they're waiting.
"So far, it's been a big hit with children in particular – they think its great and go wild for it."
