*Update* I finally got around to something that was winding my OCD up, the pedal rubbers were as worn as you'd expect from a 10 year old car so I replaced them. They weren't cheap for 2 smallish bits of rubber either! Clutch was the worst and kept slipping off the pedal. Old vs new. Brake...

These abortions are mostly from the 00's, when I used to read Max Power as a kid in the mid 90's the cars very rarely had bodykits and 17" wheels were seen as insanely huge. It was mostly about engine swaps and ICE, the only bodykits were the insanely wide Reiger & Dimma kits. The bodykits...

Like them!

Aluminium is highly flammable, that's what brought the Hindenburg down. It was lined with aluminium and a static charge ignited it which in turn ignited the hydrogen, nasty stuff if near flames.

Good spot, what's going on there they aren't standard? Makes me wonder if it's a replica now. :confused:

Fair enough, they're not to my taste but if you like them keep them. I wonder what you'll find when you remove them to refurb the headlamps?

Are you getting rid of those barry boy headlight eyebrow things too?

I don't know why there is so much hate, I think they are quite cool little cars for the money and from what I've read they are not too bad to drive either.

That Cortina is awesome, I'd drive it.

Black slats, chrome outer imho. Lovely car btw.

That's almost perfect, needs the spoiler removing though. It's just for looks doesn't do anything other than create drag iirc.

I'm just going on the fact that if you Google 'Bora estate' you get loads of standard looking cars with European plates, like the pic I posted on German plates. :wink: Probably right about the Golf being a stronger seller over here as they tend to like small saloons in Europe so the Jetta...

I think the estate had a Bora front end in Europe and we got the Golf for some reason? I think the squarer front end works better with the estate shape.

I've always liked these with the Bora front end.

Got enough rear lights there?! :anguished: I'd have one of those 3 wheelers as a weekend toy if I were minted, proper cool little cars.

Spotted a purple Murcialago near Leeds Bradford Airport the other day, colour was gay as hell.

TSW Blades! :cool:

Needs to be made into a replica of these, including green neonz. :smile:

Add to that any American Airlines plane up until they changed the livery to the crap one they have now. imho.

I decide to remove the Plastidip from the 'H' badge in the grille, I guess I didn't put on enough coats as was a bit of a bugger getting it off. I think it looks good, a bit more oem than with the black badge.

That is a nice one.

I'm not a fan of the chrome grille on the pre-facelift Accord like mine, it seems to make it look quite dated. The Euro R had the chrome bits on the grille colour coded but those grilles are quite expensive and this way it can be peeled off when I sell it. I think I might put the 'H' badge back...

I've always like the looks of these, nice & quirky. The headlights cover was designed to resemble a woman's rear end iirc.

Yeah, it's probably quite a bit lighter so I imagine it shifts if you keep the turbo spooled. The diesel Civic is the fastest non Type R iirc.

The drivers side wiper wasn't clearing the screen properly, right in my line of sight too. When I took it off the blade part had totally separated for about 2" and they were some crappy no brand. So I swapped them for some Bosch Aerotwins off eBay. Then the drivers side inner section of the...

It reminds me of the bit in Herbie Goes Bananas where Herbie's wheels all collapse.

Those USDM bumpers on the Lambo! :fearscream:

Can you imagine how it would've been received 100 years ago? It blows me away today!

If it does have a decent engine it's an illegal undeclared swap. It comes up on the my car check app as a 998cc Micra L.:confused:

love it mate
