Its RWD you know!

It doesn't make it look worse than the original so it's possibly well modified.

Ever get the feeling that half the bits would fall off if you drove down a potholed road.

I actually took about a month to post it!

The rat look looks good on old metal, it looks really odd on modern hatchbacks.

Look at the chequered graphics etc, that's not "rat look" - I don't think.

I'm fairly sure that's just someone having a bit of a laugh.

The rat look is varied very much, and can be very ott, but all having a laugh to some degree, life is too short not to.

Let's not argue about it but I'd say it's deffo Rat Look.

It's not like there are specific rules for Rat look.

It doesn't have the unpainted and rusty panel[s] but it does have the roofrack full of carp and random

other stuff stuck to it.

[TheJimi]

Genuine question to those of you who have clearly taken the some of the photos in this thread - did you comment to the owner that their car is st / badly modified?

Shakotan - it's like the Japanese version of "Scene", with very OTT anime-style mods. It starts off with those kinds of exhausts, some stancing, and an external oil cooler on the front bumper.
It usually finishes up like this:

No. To do so would usually result in having one's head kicked in, given the demographic of owners who do these kinds of mods

Another PHer in Stoke I see

Seen that Focus a few times now and utterly st doesn't cover it.

There's a few of us, although I'm officially Newcastle posse these days .
Not seen that focus though, whereabouts does it hang out, out of idle interest?

"Based on a GT2RS"

No it's not as it would be worth 5 times this.

He should have said "Made to look like a GT2RS"....I'm guessing.

And "people shouting and screaming" at him......Really ?

He also said its carbon fibre but i dont think an unfinished wrap really counts. It looks like its been in a crash and has had patent parts fitted, just waiting for paint.....

Its still a nice looking car though and wouldnt take a lot to put right.
