Have you got a hamster?  I'd gladly donate it, although it is almost certainly walnut coloured plastic!

There's enough sh!t rude boy cars on the streets of west sussex.  It's up to people like us to maintain a standard.

where do you get those led washers........

it's just sad really because these people really think that they have nice cars.  Obviously you've been to the cinema park thingy in crawley at weekends, it's quite funny.

The only car i've had with mods was a renault 19 16v.  erm, i have no excuse.  The body was standard but is was a bit rude, the bonnet vent and spoiler etc.   It had a fancy induction kit and a dtm scorpion exhaust.   It did sound good at 7,000rpm and was quite nippy, but i much prefer the understated golf quality.

to be honest i dont really dislike cars that are modded, i think some look silly but its all down to originality and turning heads at the end of the day.

 i cant really throw stones when i drive a bright yellow mark 1 cab can i!!!!  :D

Tasteful originality should be the object of modding, but the majority of modded cars i see seem to follow a very strict uniform which doesn't really improve the looks, and definately isn't original.

A bright yellow Mk1 cab is original and must turn heads of admiration.  The only people who won't think it's a cool car probably have lexus style rear lights. :D

well, yes.  I wonder if lexus drivers ever swap their lights for 'nova' or 'saxo' style clusters? ???
