What on earth possessed you to do that? I feel old...

You must be. Have you not seen cars at shows these days?

Interesting response. So because all the other cars at shows look broken you thought you'd better make yours look broken too?

I'm still interested to know what it cost but I guess that would be a little embarrassing so I don't blame you for not sharing. Do you ever look at what else you could have bought for the money (and cry yourself to sleep)?

Your dad's Up looks quite nice by contrast, nicely judged - different without looking, well, broken...

I dont need to say how much I've spent its how I want to spend it haha why look at something else? Id do the exact same to that

That thing's mad! Good on you for doing something to it. I'm not a fan of the Up! but you've done some cool stuff to yours.

Thanks bud

You are brave for posting that here

Not my cup of tea.

I don't understand the "Dub" scene

Because I suspect you could have bought something genuinely interesting, and perhaps more pertinently, actually enjoyable to drive for less.

What you've spent I'm going to guess a significant five figure sum on is a very ordinary car and made it drive worse.

Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong with an Up, my niece has a nice one and it's a perfectly adequate little car.

But hers cost four grand...

Cheers man

I like it, and I'm not so much into the slammed scene. Everything looks clean. Forget the "haters", everyone has different opinions and tastes, but it seems some people can't comprehend that.

Drive worse? Its comfy to drive and I've never had a problem with it?

I like it, refreshing to see one done properly rather than a knackered old Bora with battered/rusty arches

Are you planning to do trackdays to extract the performance from this bad boy?

More like the VW Up! Down! (with Bipolar suspension pack).

This really stands out from all the thousands of other modified VWs with it's slammed look and massive camber. No wait...

Nice job there mate!

Definitely a Niche market; which some people don't seem to understand.

Also, a lot of comments regarding do this and do that; if there's one thing I've learnt in life if it doesn't hurt anybody don't let them make you bow down to their opinions.

I can appreciate a lot of money and time has been spent on this and that should be applauded regardless.

Also, have you considered a wrap or do you like it white. I was just thinking of the Mint colour that Adam7r has on his M3 which looked pretty tasty!

Anyways enjoy your car man!
