HAVE IT, some spots from around the Torbay, Newton Abbott and the South Hams! Love this new-rave style Cavalier, satin black with florescent green detailing on bodywork and interior. IMO this fuggin rawks hard! In fact I like it so much I felt I had to take 2 photos to do it justice    Tasty mk2 golf on ATS cups, love the down swept exhaust. Just needs some German type plates to finish, plastic plates just look wrong on any VW!  Massive double cab Dodge pick up, cant really see from the photo but the paints got loads of glitter in it, different?  Ratty VW LT35 is sweet, I quite often see it out and about. Lots of potential and way cooler than your average type 2 or 3 (don’t kill me).  This poor Lotus Esprit never seems to move, its always park in the same position. Needs some love!  Toyota Celica, what gen is this? Anyway I like it, the modern rims work quite well just needs a massive drop. These have got to be seriously cheap now, WANT!  Vauxhall Royale or sommit, BC what is it? Either way with a hard slam and some period rims this would be sick.  Mk5 Escort not retro, but an interesting spot as its been converted to a pick up and its got the obligatory (and horrid) fake cosworth body kit ;D  Sorry another non-retro spot, but this mk4 golf has been very tastefully modified with (the usually nasty) Wolfrace alloys looking really good with a spot of colour coding.  Dangerously clean Midget, I would love a go in one to see what its like.  Thats is all ;D |

dangerous statement = I like that Golf a lot. Subtle, OEM+ and I like the wheels, work really well on it. I'm not really feeling the Cavalier though, sorry. I'm not saying you can;t get a cool Mk3 Cav, I've seen a few I like over the years, just that ones' not my bag a char. Lovin' the ROyale (BC will quicly tell us if we have misidentified her). They have potential x1000. The Celica is a Gen5. I am begining to find these rather cool. Its a pop-up lights thing I think. They did a convertible and if I see one of them for sale cheap in decent nick I'd have it. That Golf is on the right plates IMO. Fake German plates are on everything now. Often look a bit ghey IMO. |

German plates regularly tuck into a big plate of HOT TORTOISE COCK if you ask me.
I too am loving that shape of Celica, There was a really nice but un-MOT'd one sold on eBay last week, it was only 150 notes. very tempting.

Its one of those cars I'd get one with a ticket. Seen tidyish ones for £495 T&T. I bet you could spend £350 getting a ticket on one if it has a few parts needed.

Yep, I'm loving that shape Celica too although for me, it would have to be the GT4. Very nearly bought one a couple of years back but ended up getting a Clasic WRX instead. There wasn't an awful lot of difference in power/performance but the WRX just pipped it at the post with it having 4 doors.

That Midget's one of the late 1500 Triumph-powered ones. I drove one once and didn't like it...was probably faster than the 1275cc A-H Sprite my then girlfriend owned, but didn't feel anywhere like as nice to drive.

I may have to go down the market and buy a load of old early 90s copies of Fast Car or something to prove it but Mk3 Cav can be made to look nice and work well. Very well if its the turbo.

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