This has just popped up on Classic Audi, to much sniggering....

I am just trying to imagine the thought process that went in to dreaming that up. Just when you think you have seen everything.10/10 for originality.

An M5 surely?

I'm just wondering which end now houses the driven wheels. Or is it "All Wheel Drive"?

Its a Nissan Fairlady or to us Brit's, a 350Z.

yep, on second looks definitely a 350Z

The way the A frames taper made me think MX5.

I saw this little beauty earlier and could not resist a quick post on here.



and to ensure the full effect of those eyelashes and the flora down the passenger side...




Really classy job don't you think?

I'm doing my best to get photos, but here in NZ theres a VE Commodore V8 with stuck on bonnet vent, cat paw stickers everywhere, eye lashes and heart shaped exhausts and the number plate is -1 PUSSY that makes this Mini seem awesome.

It really does have to be seen to be believed.

Well it is Q plated so I assume it's correctly registered OTR. I doubt it's safe around corners I would seriously doubt the roll effect on that one rear wheel. Looks a genuine death trap to me and I have owned many three wheelers Berekeley, Morgan, BSA, Bond, Lomax etc. I think it will let go ŵithout warning and rollover happily. Not good.

some total gash here....

dragging along the ground (and indeed scrapping along the M25!!)

The beetle looks tragic rofl xD, if that leon was raised and got rid of the awful rims it would look nice, the bodykit looks decent enough

beetle is rat-look, not necessarily badly modified, probably just distastefully, and the Leon has the K1 BTCC kit, probably on air, wheels still aren't to my liking though.

The VW is the rat look so if thats your thing its well modified and all 3 are probably on bags so would be fine to use daily. I do like the Leon in particular, looks very well done in fact apart from the wheels, thats taste rather than badly modified though.
I am not a fan of bags on performance cars as they dont do anything to improve the handling but i dont mind the "slammed" look.

I posted this in the horrors classified topic, I suppose it applies to here aswell.

Wonder if you can drive it with a motorbike licence?

fair comment about style and (lack of) taste. In and of themselves I guess they're actually very well done - just.....

that was wheels day @ Dunsfold Airfield - a real curate's egg of a show. Some cracking motors on display and a LOT of cars there - combined with possibly the worst organisation I've ever seen at a car show

The kit on the Leon a factory (well, factory-ish) option.

I do not get all this VW st riding on air. If you want a car with air suspension get a fking Range Rover or a National express bus.

I believe that has a GTR engine and drive train so its mental and apparantly a bit of a handful but not badly modified.
