See what you mean .... might be the angle and the spoiler that does it
Although I'm not over-keen on the white alloys.

Just goes to prove some of these kitted up Clios can look the part.

LOL i passed that first v6 look a like at matlock when i was in my V6, looks shite but the people sat in the back really gave the game away lol

Is the wheelbase longer on the v6, as the wheels on thelook a likes never fit centre in the arch.

Yep that's the basic problem with all the kitted up non-Vees. It's easy to use spacers to give the wider track ... but wheelbase on Vee is fair bit longer.

got mislead by the donny girls!!

if people are gonna kit up a non vee with a wide kit they should go for the maxi kit, at least it is not trying to be a vee!

I'm not a big fan of bodykits on any car so trying to do 'lookalikes' is pretty dire

 

[DjTimP]

and i have just realised that is what the above car has!

Thing is, anyone who knows about cars is going to be able to tell a four pot from a a V6 regardless of looks.

It's a bit like those Cosworth lookalikes that trundle around town.....when they open the throttle there's no turbo spool up...just the fart of a Ford Pinto engine!
