Depends if your point is to spin the wheels  * * I am not a fan of spinning wheels, and if the tit in the Astra down my road does it one more time at midnight on a Wednesday, I'll be out there with a large lump of wood to batter his car with! |

I like it because of the sheer unlikeliness of it.
Finding one that hasn't dissolved into a flaky heap of rust will be tricky though!
Wheelspinning, in the right circumstances, is fun! But only on RWD cars. Getting a FWD car to wheelspin is just too easy. A 1.0 C*rsa could do it. And that's saying something, as those piece of sh!t three cylinder engines would be under-powered in a lawnmower!

I'm told they're not the Soviet car industry's biggest triumph, but if the Fiat twin cam and the like goes in easily then there's probably some potential, and I still stand by the fact that they remind me of Lancia Deltas! ;D ;D ;D   ;D ;D ;D |

Is the potential there?  I must be very well hidden1  First car I ever drove was a Polonez (when I was 12). Absolutely hideous vehicle in every way imaginable. It's a wonder I didn't forget cars and ride me bike everywhere after that! ;D I believe that the popular saying "you can't polish a turd" was invented with reference to this automotive nightmare! |

...and a Polish turd at that!! Would be a real lark to stick the body on Cossie running gear or something. Have it totally standard complete with factory-fresh rust... Imagine all the reps you could embarrass!! ;D |
