They may look like a giant tennis ball, a huge burger and an over-sized toilet, but these are in fact road-legal cars handmade by an Indian inventor.



The wacky vehicles are the brain child of car lover Sudhakar Yadav, from Hyderabad, India, who has become famous around the world for his quirky vehicles.



He became hooked on his unusual hobby of building the bizarrely shaped cars during his school days, designing his first vehicle aged just 14.

His entourage of automobiles is now so large, he has set up a museum, Sudha Cars Museum, to house them all.



Mr Yadav said: 'People love the cars that I make. We are getting around 1,000 visitors a day.'



Each one costs around £1,000 to £1,500 to make and are then displayed in road shows and exhibitions around India.

'I've been doing it ever since I was 14-years-old and haven't stopped for over 30 years now.



'Some people imagine that my family would be annoyed at the amount of time I spend on the cars, but my wife supports me very much.



'She even encourages me to move forward with my passion.'
