FNX Magokiler Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Restomods are gaining po[CENSORED]rity with surprising speed, the most famous of which are probably the Singer Porsches that transform classic 911 units into super-capable, detailed sports cars. However, you can also find Mustang, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, among others, on the market. What is a restomod? They are classic cars that were restored, but also modernized with modern vehicle components and technology. Their charm lies in the fact that they look like a car from yesteryear, but deliver the performance and comfort of a current vehicle. But going back to the Milivié 1, it is a creation of the Milivié company, founded by the engineer Jonathan Englier with the aim of doing a profound reengineering of emblematic vehicles originating in Germany. Only 22 units of the Milivié 1 will be manufactured, which is based on the Beetle 1303. Each unit will be completely renovated according to the company, a task that will take at least a thousand hours of work. In the end only the monocoque and the floor panels of the vehicle will be what remains. On the outside, the absence of chrome moldings, the disappearance of the door handles, as well as the bumpers stand out. The panels are much cleaner, the wheel arches are wider and the LED lights are integrated into them. Likewise, there are details that add sportiness such as more modern mirrors, the duck-tail spoiler and the 19” wheels.
