v6 Replica Pics

[FlameR]

Not a bad job that mate

This is one of the best i have seen:

And this is the worst

haha that silver one looks amazing. how much does it actually cost to make a V6 replica?

 

[KAD]

dont bother...take it from experience..it aint worth it,...buy a real one...or a trophy/172...the body weighs a ton...or more..lol..

 

[TeZ]

OMG that silver one

 

[FlameR]

I wouldn't ever bother. I'm happy with the 172, but when I get bored of it, I'm not gonna stick loads of fibre glass on it and make it look worse lol.

 

[DebV6]

I've seen worse. That silver one is gash though lol!

 

[mossyv6]

haha that silver one looks amazing. how much does it actually cost to make a V6 replica?

Nearly as much as a real one ..........oh and then try selling it after :dapprove:

 

[MillerLight]

think there maybe more reps on the road than norm ones now!

red one is good tho

 

[fuel_slut]

One of the better ones i've seen, but I cant understand why you would waste so much money on something so fake? Saying that thou it looks kinda cool.

Needs xenons too!

 

[Darren S]

that red one is surely a 'real' v6 tho?

One clue..........look where the fuel filler cap is!! it had me going for a while.
Very good effort this one.

Well spotted Mossy!

But you would have thought if they were going to those extremes, they would simply relocate the fuel-tank pipe to where it is on a V6?

D.

 

[FlameR]

How about save your money and get a ph1 172 then your half way there

 

[black kro]

good, but not quite there yet!

focus on the details - grill insert non-RS, spacing of wheels, rear arch blending........

 

[black kro]

WTF!

that silver one looks like it's just hyperspaced into a Doctor Who set :-O

 

[cat171]

Just seen this, the black one is one of the best replicas i've seen, but it's still a rep.

I've never seen another one (a real one) on the road let alone a replica.
If you want one, save up & get it, as the kits just don't look quite right, they never will (imo)

 

[RichRSi]

I would spend a bit more cash and get some front fogs, RS grille and sell the rear lights then install some from a ph2. Please dont take offense but the worst feature is the 1.2 engine you have under the bonnet, it looks like it means business but couldn't pull the skin off a custard.

(some people will spurn this now but...) If it's your bag you could go crazy and spend £6-7k and get an rs engine conversion and turbocharge it, you'd be in V6 performance territory but it's lot of money, spend a few grand more and you could get a real Vee.

 

[len_beach]

A few hundered sheets and that will be there.

 

[dutty_112]

LMFAO HAHAHAHA wtf is goin on with that silver one, reminds me of Christophers old rs next to mine in pics

 

[A13EX F Trophy No70]

the silver one's even higher than my trophy

 

[len_beach]

The silver one is a V6 Trophy.

 

[Final Maxim]

tbh the silver one i bet is still in progress, obviously needs the axle/spacers etc sorted.

its like someone taking a picture of a car in primer getting ready for paint and the usual cs retards going "hhahahahaaaha luk at dat car it int evn paintid yt!!!!111"

 

[miltage2]

still dont like, i dont understand why try and rep a v6. Just buy one!

 

[ollie]

not for me :dead:

 

[Final Maxim]

still dont like, i dont understand why try and rep a v6. Just buy one!

yep, like everyone can go out, buy a v6, insure it and keep it running

 

[hydeyho]

Personally, I think no rep comes close to Source's demo car but that used genuine v6 body parts so the quality of the rep is expected to be high, plus creating the ICE install to 'look' like the v6 engine was a great idea*

*The views above would be totally different it weren't a demo car lol

 

[cat171]

^
yep - thats the best one i've seen too, that's why it's so bang on, as it used genuine parts (as you said)

 

[SoA2k6]

You're talking a grand for the decent kit, on top of that a paint-job (£500-600), wheel spacers (£30 each?), 17" alloys (£££), spoiler (ebay - £130), twin custom exhaust (£300 - £400), plus all the little other things such as megane style indicators, xenons, washers, badges, fog lights...

 

[mossyv6]

Ahh yes forgot about the source sound clio and yes tis a very good one
IIRC they had to use a laguna rear beam/chassis part to get the rear wheels sitting correctly. Very good job and top install.

 

[Phoenix]

to the untrained eye....good

 

[orangeco]

Good effort mate, musta taken some time.

 

[Iain C]

good effort!
Needs bigger wheels tho.

 

[Ben.]

good effort, have you got any better pics??

 

[Leeshez]

Not too bad. Change the rear lights. IMO

 

[172boost]

what a terrible waste of hard earned coinage.
