" The Euro Look! " - Growing Trend ?

that's a lovely thing

 

Not a V8 as I first thought, but still nice.

I agree, its a shame to see a Series 1 in that state. Looks like its just been left somewhere to rot... [:^(]

 

Loving the MK1 Fiesta's above

 

Liking that Orion tbh

 

ah thanks, I couldn't remember where I found those pics!

 

bit like show cages?

 

Ive been noticing this more and more lately.

On the M25 on Sunday, a new Fiesta was beside me. He had what looked like Lenso's bsx wheels, lowered with a set of german pressed number plates. I also saw a Saxo, lowered to nothing with green steelies

Looks like the chavs have finally ditched the big body kits and spoilers then, and are now copying the so called VW scene look.
I like the lowered look, but not a fan of the lary green/orange ect wheels and wheelwhore stickers that you see on some VW's.

I guess its an ever changing thing really, but for me you cant beat the more subtle and original mods/looks on a VW!

 

If you think thats a shame then check this out. [:^(]

Ive never really been a part of the Ford fraternity but this thread and the retro rides 'lets see the abandoned ones' make me a little teary lol

 

I know that I am an 'Old Fart', but can someone please explain what 'The Euro Look' ACTUALLY means?

 

From wheel whores:

Lovely Pug 205 GTI:





Ford Ka's

 

Low, wide, smooth bodywork, small wide dished wheels, the whole 'less is more' ethos

 

Love that 205, I forget what a great looking little hatch they are

 

Ta Dan, me loverly boyo.

That is a really succinct , 'less is more', explanation!

 

Bump, anyone seen any more lately ?

There is a fleet of Peugeot 106's and Saxos going around near me looking very low, german pressed plates, and wide deep dished wheels.

As said going back to the start of the thread, i suppose its good to see this look, rather than the chaved up bodykits we have seen in the past.

Loving that 205 btw ^^^ Must have missed that before

 

A mate picked this up yesterday which sort of fits into the rat/euro category

 

+1

 

What got a rat look original mini. (rusted up bonnet) and a lowered fiesta st and zetec s.
dont look bad to be fair but id rather get a mk1 and do the work. so much cooler.
dont get rat look at all either

 

Yep seen a local lad used to drive a stunningly mint mk2 Fiesta '1.1 popular plus' slammed on some wide rims that looked like ATS but when it got on boost you could here the tyres spinning up on what was either 2nd or 3rd gear followed by a few loud pops and bangs from the exhaust

 

is'nt it a bit like early nineties clean cars with 17" 5 spoke or them horrible 3 spoke alloys.
but now with deep dish alloys ,and lowering kits instead of the mad cut the springs
