Seen that in the flesh at a service station once!

I like the colour, but the styling is poo!

They've done such a excellent job of the car, but they spoil it ALL by the fitment of the rear number plate ;D ;D ;D ;D

Oh dear, don't like the styling of the rear. Looks like it's had a rear end shunt and it's just been sprayed over.  Can't understand this "twisty twirly" styling at all. Personally I think it looks awful.

He'll be lucky to get £60 for that piece of crap, let alone anywhere near the starting bid of £600 (which an R plate 2.5 isn't worth anyway).

While I agree - to be fair to the person, they've probably put a lot of time into it. End of the day, if they like it, it's all that counts  :y

No I disagree....
The ONLY thing that is a "Hanging Offence" is people being to serious on here instead of light hearted ;D ;D ;D :P :P :P

I may be doing the guy an injustice here but he's got more chance of his car reaching his reserve than that too, I'd wager. Any day of the week. ;D

I agree.

I spended £200 on wishbones, front shocks (genuine Vx), and droplinks.
If you added the labour charge, then that would have put my old MIG at £1000 before you included the 4 brand new tyres and 2 sessions at WIM to get the geometry right (another £360 on top).
Add to that the basic crap (air-con regas, coolant change, oil/filter change, etc) and it would have easily hit £1800 at garage rates.

Do you really think I would have pulled £1800 for a January 2000 registered 2.5 CDX Estate?
I don't think so, which is why I sold it for what it owed me.....£1000

If matey thinks he's gonna get anywhere near the money he has spent on that god awful example, then I'd like the name & address of his dealer.........because he's obviously getting far better quality drugs than what I am (in which case, I want some).

Looks more like a Calibra,
is the rear spoiler big enough?
Yellow break calipers,
rear plate light looks like they syole one of a caravan plate is also wonky,
front bumper thingy is squewiff ( not strieght )
I like the exhaust though, dont know why he put it out the front bumper though.

He could not be hung high enough.

That thing raises the bar for Shedness. The rear view had me spluttering my cuppa everywhere.

Rear bumper appears from the 'Bollywood Sari' school of design.......
