That pug 205 is way too try hard, on an old bug yeah, but on that ? No way, plus it looks like he's only just done it too.

I stick with loving bugs, variants & splittys !

 

[Spark]

as discussed on eu-mania, the 205 does look to clean but the interior is cool as foobar

as much as i love the rat look i cant believe someone could do it to a vw camper

 

[ChrisPearson]

I think its cool tbh and i want that 205

[Turkish]

I may have to post the AE86, lol

 

[Christopher]

LOL... do it

I used it the other day with TeZ and all his mates... they were like "what the fcuk is that" and "i can't see for smoke" :approve:

 

[Turkish]

I may well do

lol, it's a monster I reckon with a few tweaks it'll be spot on for drifting, it's ok on wide circuits once you've had a couple of laps but a right t**t on tsukuba.

[AhmedRSi]

[Helldriver]

[Phoenix]

love the rat look. some of them have got a very apocalyptic look to them.

 

[172bagss2]

^^ Heart-breaking! This is exactly how my MG Metro Turbo ended up 12 yrs ago...

 

[SBV116]

^ best place for it if were fair baggers...........................

 

[VeinAST]

That 19 is trying too hard

 

[Scott]

There's rat look and there's 'shat look'. A lot of them that have been posted are the latter. In my opinion a true rat looker should happen over time, not fake it by sanding down normal paint to age it and chuck any old s**t on it to f**k up the paint.
A proper 'Rat' would be solid underneath with naturally aged body & paint, ie the '59 bug in this thread http://www.volkszone.com/VZi/showthread.php?t=416002

 

[Liam:]

Just a few...

 

[Amy]

Re-ignited my want for a bug. Even if they are rat, they look pretty cool!

 

[Englebert]

Pretty cool? They're awesome!

 

[Turkish]
