This guy on mg-rover.org made a piss take rover 25 of the so called rat look and purposley went over board with it. its a little track slag though and would give most n/a of its group a run for there money its also won a fair few tropies. His other car is a imaculate zr 2.0 turbo

Works best on aircooled IMO.
But I remember seeing a polo (g40, maybe...) at edition that had been done so OTT that it looked ok.

unless its air cooled rat looks fcuking stupid. artificial or man made rust on a mk1 mk2 mk3 or higher is a joke and a wast of a good car.

END OFF  :angry:
