Badly modified cars thread

[forzaminardi]

Some of these, like the squashed Land Rover and the stupid Camaro on stilts are stupid, yeah, but also a bit of a laugh - and obviously involve a fair degree of time/effort/money.

take away the hideous wheels and that would look quite good...although the wheel base looks a bit long for the body

People, sorry tards, who do this really deserve there hands chopping off, cause they are obviously no use to them.

Careful now - if we start saying cars have to have a 'use' or a 'purpose' we'll be scrapping almost everything.

What 'use' is a Veyron - it's maximum speed requires a test-track the size of a small country.

What 'use' is an F40 - almost undriveable on the road - not really upto snuff for racing!?

I love those both - but if I was pinned-down I'd have to admit they're pretty much pointless beyond being technological showcases (for the respective times) and damned pretty and desireable.

Put another way - someone puts 32" rims on a car - other versions of that car look better - everyone wins.

You cannot CANNOT be angry about it because it's

a - childish
b - indefensible

Most you can do is say "I don't like that" or "I think that looks stupid" - personally, I just laughed myself silly

Why does it appear to have some scaffolding welded under it's bumper?

I spotted this Alto at TESCO Chesterfield today after work. I took it as I thought it was a good number plate, but I think it goes here also:



I think the crimes are: wheel trims painted pink, fluffy pink steering wheel cover, the body length stripes, the peace sticker.

Just think if they had a bigger car, they could fit more junk on/in it.

[carlove]

At least it doesn't have eyelashes.

How about some F430?

Glad he fitted the lowering springs so that the ride height is correct! Wouldn't be a 100% accurate replica without it!

Think this is probably modified to be advertising for their business. Nothing wrong with having a show car that attracts attention and lets potential customers see workmanship of interior ice and bodywork etc...

Nothing wrong with promoting business in unique ways IMO.

I'd rather have the 1998 406 Coupe for shed money than that for £7500 minimum
