The best thing about cars like that is that as long as the silly-billies that make them stick to bland heaps of plastic like that then they don't massacre anything retro or interesting.

I bet it's a car that belongs to a group called (and I think this is spelt correctly) Hayezsquad. I had this misfortune of seeing one of their cars driving through West Drayton when I was coming back from Speed Shack...

Oh dear god, I feel like my eyes have been raped.
What the purple pulsating f**k was he thinking?
The most laughable part is the starting price, I wouldn't give him 5 quiod for it, let alone over 5 grand.
TOSSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No everybody, you've got it wrong. This boy is obviously to be applauded for his recycling efforts. Just think, if that junk wasn't stuck to his car (loose description) it would be in landfill. Not good at all.

Oh dear. What a complete bag of cack that car is! Whats the betting the engine is standard too? On the subject of which, how about this bag of automotive curse word?  I guy me and Jabbo work with owns on of these: He has so far lowered it over standard wheels (!) and fitted a 9in diameter "sports" exhaust! He asked us our opinons (unprintable!!) and what he could do to make it faster! I'd have thought bin the exhaust (or restore it to its rightful function - as a bin!) to restore some back pressure, then launch the hideous device off beachy head - should do the trick! Id rather be seen driving this!  PS: If you really want to laugh at some stick on rubbish, try this: www.barryboys.co.ukLaughed? I nearly pee'd myself: Don't think the Beamer will be sporting the "Roland Rat" look any time soon! (You don' t think they misuderstood rat look do you?) ;D ;D ;D |

When will the car manufacturers learn? They waste their money paying millions to designers and engineers when really all they need is Barry and a branch of Halfords.
I love the way he's managed to make his front wheels look really in-board. That must've taken weeks of planning and prototyping.
And four exhausts! One for each cylinder... strange that the Motorsport guys haven't picked up on that one - obviously this guy is wasted serving grannies at Kwik-Save.

I'm loathe to criticise MG Rover but I see what you're saying HoTWire - the Streetwise... I mean, really....  Wasn't there talk of MG linking up with Maserati for some super car or other? I don't really follow modern car stuff so this could've happened already. |

Also, did you see the 6.6 ltr ZT-T the guys at Rover cobbled together recently. It ran to 240mph (I think) on Salt Flats in the States. Mental! Not bad for a bunch of guys who's only resources are a piece of string, a ball of fluff and some old ford grubby bits! (although I'm sure the parachutes on the back were slightly unneccesary!). ;D

Surely this is only going to appeal as something for old buffers to run marjorie to the shops in (so as not to get rain / dust / muck on their concourse MGB's). |
