Yep totaly agree.But before the mass slaughter starts It's all about personal prefrence,and personalising to your own tastes.Suppose thats why we have so many different styles and colours to do what we see fit.

Chavs are the bottom end of the ladder,tree, scale whatever and they want fast cars.
Classic scoobies are cheap. Cheap fast car are getting picked up by chavs

If it's blue then the rims should be gold, any other colour then graphite is the way forward imho

I bought mine with gold wheels and must admit I'm not massively fussed on them, but I can't see them from the drivers seat so don't really give a crap! If I was that fussed about how it looked, or my image, I wouldn't be driving a scoob!
