I think a little bit of photoshopping has been done on the woody, but not much. There are SUVs over here at the moment that I pass and my head is level with the top of their tyres, so it's not too dissimilar to that pic.

It's chopped. The grass above the mini is all the wrong shade (where it left a hole)
Neat joke though.....

It might be a model one....like one of the others on that link, (next to the bike on a trailer). There was a model mini cabrio about that size at Castle Coombe last year.

Its a fake looking at it closer in a different colour and under zoom there are to many straight lines on the ground under the clubby doors. It is a photoshop no doubt.

hard to tell of such a carppy original image.
Mini height = 1350mm
SUV height = 1890mm.
If you draw some lines across the floor from the rear tyres of the woody to where they intersect the forbyfor you can see that the forbyfor at that point is less than twice as high as the mini. It's the perspective of the photo that makes it look so small. It is because the camera was held (I assume) at eye level, which is below the height of the roof of the Amazon, so that appears to be higher than actual. The mini is also further forward than the back of the Amazon and lower than the camera height.
My opinion is:
inconclusive!!!!! LMAO
