Not much room for your shopping (Picture: Instagram/@tuttipazzipermarazzi)

A mechanic has built a car so slim that it looks like the photo was taken in a fun house mirror.

The blue car only has space for the driver and possibly one passenger in the back,though we wouldn’t be keen to contort ourselves into there.

Just 50cm wide,the car is about the width of a pillow,and has room for just one headlamp on the front.

It would be very easy to reverse park with it though,so we’ll give it that.

Unfortuntately,you won’t be able to buy one though,unless perhaps if you contact its owner director to make you a bespoke new one.

Andrea Marazzi,30,made it especially for a festival in Italy celebrating 45 years of the Fiat Panda.

He used original materials from a 1993 model to make the new look electric Panda,which doesn’t look any different from the side,then seems comically 2D once you see it head on.

It was a popular sight at the festival in Pandino,southeast of Milan,and has since gone viral.

He is reportedly preparing an official application for it to be recognised by Guinness World Records as the narrowest car ever built.

The car includes the original rear seat,but modified so only the very smallest could perch their bottom on it.

Even the front seat is also very pinched,much narrower than in a standard version.

According to DesignBoom,it weighs 264 kg,is 145 cm tall,and 50cm side. At a top speed of only 15km and range of 25km on a full charge,the catch is that it’s not road legal,with its motor taken from an e-scooter.

Mr Marazzi built the car at the scrapyard and workshop owned by his family,Autodemolizione Marazzi in Bagnolo Cremasco.

He says its sturdier than it looks.

Would you drive a car this thin?

Yeah,it would save space

In a video on Instagram,he showed how it would not just tip over even when given a significant shove.

‘Many people think that it will tip over just by blowing but they are wrong,’ he said in Italian. 

‘Look here – you have to push it a little and it will wobble but it won’t [fall over].’
