To be honest they're more likely to be Rota's replica offering. RM100 iirc. Japan Racing also offer the same design. |

@luckseven maybe your over-opinionated stubbornness got in the way or maybe you base your judgements on a quick glance alone but the quality of work put into this is actually very high...  and I'm not sure what B&Qs you go to but there's not many of these cars about let alone modified so it's good to see one in such good condition. |

Indeed, I don't like this type of modifying myself and I wonder where the 'negative post' police are???
This isn't Barry Boys is it???

I probably ought'nt reply to that before I've had my first cigarette of the day, but...
Since I went to the effort of driving to the show, taking lots of photographs which I then edited so they looked the best they could, uploading them, pasting loads of links into a thread and writing some kind of commentary to go with them, I reserve the ****ing right to write whatever the hell I want to accompany them. If you want to hold a contrary opinion, get off your ar$e and write your own damned thread. Although if you're genuinely too stupid to tell the difference between tongue-in-cheek light humour and Barryboys-style insult, then perhaps it's best if you don't bother. Oh, you haven't, have you?
But that's fine, I don't have to inflict my "over-opinionated stubornness" on Retro Rides. Maybe it's best if I leave you all to page after page of "wow, great car" posts. That'll be truly fascinating, won't it?

I like the MR2 with the bodykit. It all works well, looks better than standard and i think that's kinda the aim (so many miss it, usually in the name of fashion).
I like the little Datsun. I run a practical, no-nonsense 'drive-way build' on bike carbs myself, it's right up my street. Light, rear drive, simple, noisy, lively, everything an enthusiastic driver needs. I'd have a bit more tyre and maybe a coat of gloss but whatever.
Erm, so yeah, i liked something. There's my 'something nice to say or don't bother' Retro Rides thing. Wouldn't want to offend anyone now.. Oooh, look over there..

That'll be truly fascinating, won't it? far from it. you gave your opinion and i gave mine. forums would be boring if we all agreed.  |

That'll be truly fascinating, won't it? far from it. you gave your opinion and i gave mine. forums would be boring if we all agreed. Not exactly, I gave an opinion and you gave personal insults. Forums would indeed be boring if everyone agreed, which is why I find it perpetually mystifying that every time someone voices one on here that doesn't follow the sheep-like hivemind doctrine they get shouted down. But there you go, I don't have to put myself out to get insulted by people like you. In fact it'll save me a whole lot of time and effort in future not to |

Your tongue-in-cheek shtick is amusing, don't let it become actual bitterness, it is just people having fun with cars. |
