Why did they make it with the wheels off the car?

Does it come supplied with axle stands?

'bless offers their services to create these pieces for 'supercars', in a play on the car as a status symbol'

To be honest I found the above rationale for the production of their crazy BX beanbag a bit puzzling. I'm probably more well predisposed to the charms of the Citroen BX than most, but even I can't remember the last time I used the words, 'supercar', 'status symbol' and 'Citroen BX' in the same sentence!

The perfect BX: you can take it to bed with you, and it won't rust.

Suspension looks a bit low though, and I'm not sure that there's much torque.

It's a Citroen BX super size beanbag. A bean bag is a bag that's been filled full of er . . . beans and the Citroen BX is an old French car. You don't see 'em much these days, but quite good apparently.
