In the world of tuning, there are cars that simply do not go unnoticed. This is the case of the Hello Kitty car that Franci Sánchez discovered one day. This completely themed vehicle takes customization to another level, showing not only an eye-catching design, but also the dedication and affection for this iconic character.
The car, completely covered in pink, from the wheels to the body, is adorned with stickers of the popular kitten and finished with two pairs of black and pink ears on the roof. Inside it is also full of references to this cultural icon born in Japan.
Franci Sánchez, upon discovering this car, has shared her impressions with a mixture of amazement and humor: “You have to like Hello Kitty, right? What a joke, buddy.” “Look, it’s even like the Chinese thing that gives you luck, but Hello Kitty,” he commented when he saw the interior of the car. Of course, he has pointed out that the owner is “a little geek”, although he has also acknowledged that he “is handsome.”
One of the details that has surprised the most is that it has passed the ITV until 2025. However, it is perfectly possible that a personalized car with a Hello Kitty theme – or another – has passed the ITV if all the modifications are within what is allowed by the law and do not compromise the safety or functionality of the vehicle.
In this sense, purely aesthetic customizations such as paint, stickers, and decorative accessories such as Hello Kitty ears generally do not affect the MOT approval, as long as they do not alter the visibility, the original dimensions, or include sharp or dangerous elements. On the other hand, the color or designs on the wheels, such as the pink ones on Hello Kitty’s car, do not affect this regulation as long as their dimensions and technical specifications comply with what is allowed for the car model.
