That looks pretty cool, maybe another coil out of the front.

I wouldn't class a 10 year old car as retro but it's does look very different, how come did it only cost you £1?

cos thats all its worth? they really are an awkwardly proportioned car arent they. clunky roofline, too big windscreen, too small bonnet, massive slab-sides with too-low rear arches. it makes any wheel look rubbish.

Looks good mate, I can see the retro touches ignore the jobsworths on here!

That looks epic. Very nice Whats the story on it costing a quid though? supprised some people are quoting the old not retro enough line though. Alot more modern stuff comes up regularly in the general board posted by the regulars...

Dare to be different. Well it's certainly the first modded Pious I've seen.
The same mods would have looked awesome on Ben's old Dyane which you used to own! ;D

Not really to my taste, But i've never seen another like it... so Kudos to that! IMO its not all about following the 'fashion' or buying an old car for it to be 'retro'... You've made this car stand out and made it to your style, I like that.

"imitative of a style, fashion or design of the recent past"
a 2012 fiat 500 is "retro", the new dodge charger is "retro"

Well done for a nice ride! It is always good to buck the trend!
I do like what you have done there a lot! I think that the roofline reminds me a lot of 80's cars when there were rear and side windows that you could actually see out of!
Thanks for sharing.
Rysz.

I'd rock that in a heartbeat. Personally the red and black on the wheels is a bit much for me, I'd run all black, and as Matt mentioned it could do with a touch more out of the front suspension.
Kudos for turning a 'white goods environmentalist' motor into something interesting.
