Where’s the Clio filled with wood, fibreglass and a 55” tv

[donnylad]

There was a thread on here, I laughed at regularly but want to see the finished result.

Is that car still on here? Anyone point me to it if so. Search on my phone didn’t find the thread.

It was full of msg, large screens and weighed an estimated 2T.

Here's the absolute monstrosity.

Is the thread still here, and updated?

 

[Pacman.]

He Does posts on FB regularly. It’s got more body filler on it which is just being stuck everywhere lol

 

[jameswrx]

Wow. I didn’t think it’d be that bad. Is it a joke?

 

[frayz]

Fair play if that’s what makes the fella happy. But I think he will be severely ill from dust inhalation before the car is ever finished. He often posts photos and I often have no idea what part of the car I’m supposed to be looking at.
I don’t personally see the point, but guess we all like different things.

 

[Krarl]

Anyone that likes that car is probably mentally retarded

I've seen more MDF in that car than you'd find in Wickes

The garage itself fills me with anxiety and reminds me when I used to live at home with my parents and if be working on my cars with my dad and he'd say to me "go get me a 12mm socket"

I'd go through his toolbox and it would be full of sockets all thrown in, both metric and imperial mixed together.

 

[R3k1355]

He posts updates to Facebook and YouTube. Seems happy enough, leave him to it I say.

It's not an RS model, 1.4 or 1.6 from what I remember.

It’s the supra I feel more sorry for.

Hardcore...

I don't think anyone was going to do anything mate. Didn't see any plans to pillage his area.

Wouldn't be the first time it happened. Some bloke on the modified van page had his V6 Berlingo max power project burnt out by someone who didn't like it. People are s**t.

Imagine the fumes off that fibreglass if the clio went up

 

[NBG182]

I can't wait till he gets that thing on a weigh bridge to be honest. Taking bets?

Thats fucked up, poor bloke.

Yeah my post wasn’t a bully / piss take at all, I don’t like the car one bit, but for some gay reason I’m interested how it turns out / if he finished it.

I don’t do Facebook/ social media so hadn’t seen it there 👍

To be fair I'm quite keen to see it done. It's a bit out there but he has a vision and he's cracking on with it so fair play really.

Here's the absolute monstrosity.

Looks like some ancient tomb thats been unearthed. Can't really tell what's going on haha.

 

[Clio_fool]

I watched one of his videos recently and I was surprised at how normal he sounds. It was very unnerving. 😂

 

[Pacman.]

TBF I’ve never seen body filler applied with a trowel before.

You've never seen a Cas slag put her makeup on then! 🤣

Watched some of it again on a bigger screen and it makes more sense. Guessing it's just having a driver seat in?

 

[RustyMojo]

I mean it’s not my cup of tea, or how I would go about doing what he seems to want to achieve. But the lad obviously enjoys what he is doing and for that reason I say FairPlay to him. I’ve seen him gets dogs abuse on Facebook, which I think is a little unfair.

 

[HaveaCuppa]

It harks back to the Max Power era I suppose which is certainly marmite.

Not my cup of tea but I’d rather see this and the effort the fella has put in, over the usual shite that you see these days which seems to be air, big wheels and a pop and bang remap on a VAG hatch.

That Berlingo V6 would have been ace though.

* on finance

 

[HaveaCuppa]

* on finance

You’re a brave man mentioning that, haha. You say the word ‘Finance’ on other forums and there’s a mob outside your house with pitchforks within the hour

It’s bang on the money though as it’s Always the exact same mods on the £300 a month Golf R’s.
Not that I’m knocking it as it works for some folk, but it’s just so bloody boring.

 

[R3k1355]

Found out not long ago you can finance remaps as well, local place mentioned it to my mate when he got his Transporter done.

If you need finance on something like that you probably don't need something like that.

 

[Clio_fool]

Van remaps🙈. I'm having flashbacks to the recovery guy telling me allll about his transit supervan. 😟😩😢😭🥴

 

[jameswrx]

Maybe I’ve watched a different video to everyone else. He’s obviously spent many hours on it but how is he that bad? When he peered into the door it looked like a bomb had gone off and wood was splintered everywhere. Then ‘closing’ the door down... if he’s of sound mind then it’s shocking work. Of course it could be he’s got issues mentally in which case I hope it brings him much happiness and he carries on if it’s a good distraction.

 

[Clio_fool]

I don't understand why he's plastered up half the passenger window. The thing is never going to move under its own power because it'll weigh 8 tonnes and never be road legal again. He may as well just built a trailer into a stormtrooper. Or Jabba the Hutt. Now that I'd like to see😂.

 

[R3k1355]

IIRC it was always going to be trailered to and from shows, so performance or road legality are kinda moot points.

Screens were going to be everywhere IIRC?

You but you will need an 18 wheeler to transport it. Ifor Williams don’t do trailers to 8 tonnes.

You could take a screenshot from that video and put it in a report about the Syrian civil war and nobody would know any better.

 

[Pacman.]

I’ve seen vehicles blown up in IED attacks that look better than that. His neighbours must love him with all that dust everywhere.

 

[R3k1355]

Looks like the guy took some comments to heart,

Those before shots tho

 

[jameswrx]

Imagine when he has an electrical fault in the future and realises the only way to get at the UCH is to smash through 8” of body filler.

The silhouette isn’t bad but when you see the thickness of it all up close, blimey. He’ll need a turbo k20 to move it.
