ok, this will be hard to put into words on a forum as tbh I don't have a 100% clear picture of what I actually want
things running around in my head are (for inspiration purposes only)
mad max
apocalyptic
fast
dull/poor paint/matt black
looks awesome
would make my 9yr old lad go "wow dad"
and the kicker.....be able to carry 5 (i know that takes it down a notch maybe)
measly budget - 4k maximum
Car wise i'm fed up with VW, 20yrs and almost 400 different ones under my belt I want something different, something awesome. I'm very partial to Yanks but feel my obsession with them may be clouding my judgement of other awesomeness??
Like I say I have no idea what that car would be, if it even exists and if it did at what price, or would turning something already ok into the above be possible??
help and inspiration desperately needed
thanks all

Stuff like the Roadkill cars? The Charger is my favorite..  But the others may be your sort of thing too   |

Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

Some days you just need to take a grinder to an inanimate object, just to make your day a tiny bit better!!

the nissan - sweet, very sweet and thats up my alley
overdrive - I'm not feeing that, sorry
Dawson - that wouldnt go down well with the neighbours I don't think
Loud and proud - ive done the scooby route a while back, financially I wasnt in a position to enjoy it as I should but loved the car, mega fast, love the noise and carried the family easily - fruity on the Insurance mind !!

ooh I like that Fred, build thread on it? No build thread - but I bought it off a good work mate - a few years ago, It was Drab Camo and the rear diff was shot, got it for £400 quid - replaced the diff did a rattle can matt black, bought some 'tasteful decals' off fleabay - the owner before my workmate did all the work massive chassis strengthening, big 8 mm steel plate on the front which had a big ass winch, it had the 3.0 litre petrol lump which went like steam pretty awesome wagon, sold it for some stupid reason I wanted a 7 series BMW - which I got and was to be honest never liked it too much - another regret i life eh? |

As reliable and sensible as any VW, but more comfortable and more spacious for less money. £4k should get a really nice one and most of your mods all in. If in doubt, Volvo.  |
