Lol i just loved the fact that none of his posts made sense!

the wording is all wrong lol
here is an example

Quote:
looks are one thing but when it drives so bad that even on freeway sections someone wants to drive around in a car which gives you back pain ?

lol yeah, his posts show a big talker with literacy probs', can't believe noone has picked him up on it before?!?

P.S. actually, that example is a good one! most the time he can't spell & pronunciation, well!

You'd think he'd have seen the EDIT tab by now

I've never seen a TT one Fresh, maybe they'd be cool but I've nearly always driven 2 door sporties so, except for the V8's I had waaaaaay back, I dig the 2 doors BUT, if you have to have a wagon, then, s'pose they'd be cool, NOT as cool as my wifes' Black & Chrome PT Cruiser though, sloooooooow but, super cool bit small for a hurse though

the tt was way mad,and i mean fully macked,fully sik,fully loaded modified legnum that a friend owned,he was an engineer at a boat building company
he put like 30k into the engin alone but dont know if he finished as i was comming here so in saying that 4 years on he would've finshed it by now

Legnums = great
you just wait a fair bit for broken parts - body interior and any special sensors etc. But if you search hard it can be found.

If I put 30K into any motor, I'd want 4 T's just like the BUGATTI EB110! Now your talkin' only thing is, that donkey was far more than 30K, car alone sold for approx half mil'

im gonna go out on a limb here and say i dont mind the very first magna... the front bar actuallly doesnt look all that bad, it fits nicely and lines up with the mitsi headlights well...
id remeove the graphics and probably get some less sh*ty rims for it though.

but consider this guys, how would you feel if there was a post bagging your car up on a magna site? (or any site) there is way way too much negativity in the car scene. instead of bagging every mod others do, encourage them, offer advice. not insults!

I really thought this was all just taking the piss, that's all! No harm meant by anyone who commented. Sorry from me to all who would be offended.

i like them all, i mean 1st off the 1st one is just a little bit over the top and the red is just a little out with the wood grain, BUT who knows what it looks like now AND those photos could be from late 90s early 00s when stuff like that was really in also small details like red door card inserts would realy complete it and who said that the bonnet vent is stuck on with tape, it could be pop riveted on or screwed on in some way with a hole in the bonet for cooling underneath
like KQ said u cant bag other cars out, well you can but you shouldnt, cus each to their own every person has their own taste. i know my car gets alot of flak from my mates who have S15s and WRXs and the likes but the point is i got this car BECAUSE it is so diferent and not so comon apart from stock
