was just looking at that on evilbay this week , ruined imo and big bucks!!

Anyone else think that looks fecked, negative camber all over the place, just looks daft in my(getting on a bit now,significant birthday imminent) opinion.
Stance, I believe it's called?
I don't mind a wee bit of lowering to improve the look and handling a bit but I'll bet a standard 80 would do a lap of the streets better than that thing.
A bit of coinage a$ well for something that in my eyes isn't that special.
Anyone else getting old

John.

Just realized it's only had one owner according to the add......hhhmm, I think not.

Looks $hite.. don't think he'd even manage a 10 point U turn.

I like it a lot to look at, not to drive though. But I'm only 28! I've been there done that many times and still own a VW Passat in a similar vein. It's a generation thing, some people like it some don't. But with the vast amount of cars on the road today that all look the same some of us like to modify there cars some do it well others don't.

Not one for anything modern but that Passat is very nice.

lee20vt · 03-04-13, 08:32 AM

Thanks, had it 6 years now. Time to move on which is why I bought my 90. Doesn't really get used as I'm petrified of leaving it anywhere incase someone scratches/dents it! Had it fully painted 2.5 years ago but have only done about 500 miles since!

Customising of cars has been going on almost as long as cars have existed.
In this age of blandness in particular, I don't think you can blame anyone for wanting to have something different. We might not necessarily approve but I think that's probably just a generation thing.

Back in the '70s I remember well MK 3 Cortinas with jacked up rear suspension and chrome plated rear axles, massively wide rear tyres and fur lined interiors including the dash and steering wheel.
In the '80s it was bolt on Richard Grant Accesories bodykits which really did look like you had crashed into Halfords and driven out the other side.

As Brian of Nazareth once said "We are all individuals" well ,most of us are.
