i'm seeing more 5 dors. standard cars (mint obviously) andthe race look- complete tattiness but with bling engine bay etc!
Well i'm not one for trends myself, so all i'm doing is restoring my car with a few touches of me. [rant mode]Don't care if it's not down with anyone else, i'm doing what looks good to me and suits my car. [/rant mode] Pete Edit* Driver the car in your sig. It looks like Pepe, dunno if you've seen it, reckon it's the lowest Nova i've ever seen. Edited by: tallika_fan
Pepe isthe name of teh Nova owned by a guy who goes by the name of Grom, the following pics is from a nova forum from a few years ago. Looked it up recently and, it looks liks it's gonna kick ass when finished! Sorry.
Yeah in that pic it does though it usually looks straight. It's been 'turreted', besaically de-beamed at the rear, so sits on some sort of independent suspension setup. Should see the 'bay, its crazy, not exactly my taste though it's running a vectra TC engine, dry sumped with 8 injectors, different stages an all that, looks quitwe an achievement. When its finished he reckons it'll be running somethin like 300
This was my favourite lookin MK2... thats why i built it that way. Just wish i had finished it all and not killed it!
Don't know as I havn't done much yet. Probably 5 door golfs with stupid spoilers, massive wheels, 6 tail pipes and another car to tow it with as its weighed down with crap. Keep it standard, make it a sleeper!
Phat, Stu; plastic bumpered mk1s?! Noooooooooo, early mk1s are the way to go, as is beige and steels hiding far more bhp than std
I know, I wanted an earlier Mk1 Polo... but they aren't exactly easy to come by! Was going to fit earlier bumpers on mine but they hide a bit of dodgy bodywork someone has done in the past.
No, I know where there is an early shell knocking arround. Going to do it with a m8 as a project car. Thinking of a 1.4 16v to put in the stripped out beast. Litrally just a shell at the moment but with a re-spray, standard look and some trick parts it should be the daddy.
When will people see, jus cos its old and retro doesnt mean its cool!!! A lot of that stuff was shit the first time round, and now its even worse!! Beige, and steels - for fuck sake!
