Yeah, maybe I am coming across as a bit arrogant. That wasn't the intention. Despite the fact that I don't own one anymore I still have a soft spot for Scoobys, but IMO that one looks hilariously bad and it's a shame to see a car I still love molested like that.
It looks like it has been modded by a 17 year-old 'chav' (I hate that word, but it fits here).
The owner probably is a top bloke judging by what you are all saying, I just hate to see a great car ruined like that
Christ, I'm starting to sound like Bubba Po, God help me....

But it's not ruined... not to whom it really matters 
Afterall, it's been modified neatly with decent parts so it's hardly comparable to the tasteless mods by some young lads...

Soulgirl I totally agree, he has paid his money for that car regardless if we like what he has done it's his choice.
Drexel i was just winding you up mate as I knew you would bite
You always see people ripping the heart out of a perfectly good car to personlise it and sometimes it makes me mad to see some **** put gull wing doors on a ferarri
Anyway as said before if he likes it the why not just let him create it in his own way

To me it's EXACTLY the same as the tasteless mods by some young lads. That's exactly my point.

What's also cool is that I assume he is working hard to modify his car instead of hanging around streets, getting pissed out of his head every night ******** slags and claiming benefits.

1. First thing that grabs me is the spoiler, wouldn't suit a wagon even if it was on straight, the fact that it's at such a strange angle makes it look like it's been bodged on.
2. That God-awful bonnet scoop. I mean come on, what the hell is it supposed to be?? The designer of it must be on some kind of mind expanding drug.
3. The bodykit. It just looks wrong. It doesn't suit the car atall, and looks cheap and nasty.
4. The roof scoop. It just looks completely out of place.
5. The headlights. Genuine morettes can look quite good, those cheap copies look wrong because the actual light units are too small compared to genuine morettes.
The whole thing just looks like a cobbled together mess.
I have nothing against external mods when done nicely, but that just doesn't work, atall.

That is disgusting. People trying to defend it as different - yeah right. Like a paedophile is different. I don't mind one living on my street though. After all each to there own eh
