They NEED to bring back boxy wheelarches. Every car I have seen with it looks absolutely fantastic!

E30 M3 - Yes
Lancia Integrale - Yes
Audi Quattro - Yes

Even this Manta is elevated by the presence of them. Any more I've missed?

Golf G60 Rallye?

Love the Manta, always have. A friend had a white B plate which he added the 400 kit/lights/alloys to, it looked awesome. If only the red top was 5 years older!!

Loving that Manta, great looking car.

Other box arches.......

How could we forget the car that started it?

[PascalBuyens]

Oh god... the memories of hooning around one of those on trackdays... Until the left front wheel ploughed itself through the wheel arch and cabin...

[MogulBoy]

Just needs some Rothmans stripes...

[moskvich427]

Seems cheap compared to similar offerings with a blue oval badge.

And considering the amount that's clearly been spent on it

Lots of Gordini varients surely? and some of the Merc 190's (Cosworths?) oh and my mums Clio had exagerated front wheel arches after she ploughed it in to a wall, that count?

Now we're talking. Class.

Not as boxy as some, but pumped up and still looking great.

Not as the designer intended, and a little "blingy", but i'd still happily own it.
