    Not a bad choice.

    I thought that your name was Gaz, not Barry... they are rubbish and rot like ferk. It won't be quick once you bolt a load of plastic tat to it.

    Oh god, not another 'Dub' scener! Let me guess - stretched tyres, slammed into the weeds so it won't go over speed bumps, rusted and varnished wing and a picnic basket on the roof rack, then stickerbombed to ferk.

    Dubbers, it makes you want to weep...

    me and my mates had a few punto's,,,,,,,they were quick for what they were and the turbo's f**king flew

    the turbo kit is an easy replacement for old bumpers and makes it look spot on,,,,if you cant have speed take simple styling and lower it to handle like a go-kart

    ive had a few mk1 corsa's aswel all costing under £500,,,,,,,set of 60mm apex springs for £60 and there on rails

    new car every other month back then,,,,,,, these days have changed alot

    wouldnt touch a punto with a barge pole. ever. fuck that. fucking hate those ones who rust out there bonnets on there standard polos.

    what the hell ever happened to building a proper custom motor, something that not everyone has, with a stupid big engine with stupid power and making it your own and not look like everyone elses.....

    For long term on my MZ I'm gonna get a 150cc kit, but they ain't cheap!
    And my dad used to have a mini when he was in his 20's, bought it as an 800cc and shoved a 1.3 in it, straight through pipe and all the other odds and ends, but forgot to take the engine plate off saying the cc, which was awkward when it came to MOTing :p

    I was a passenger in a lad I knows Lupo back in August (the night before my accident actually, weird)
    It was lower than low, tiny wheels etc, looked pretty cool but round every corner the side skirts would scrape the road, all you could hear was grinding metal, it wasn't cool beans.

    Yeah, but his Lupo was sooo Dub Scene that he felt that he was freezing to death, by being so cool. The whole 'Dubber' scene seems to be populated by fanboy idiots, desperate to be cool, a bit like the kid at school that nobody liked.

    Here's a 'Dubbed' Punto...

    And a Lupo:-

    This is 'Dub' scene taken to it's limits, with a stanced motor, rat look, the bloody works.

    There are these fibreglass things in France which can be driven on a provisional license.
    They can be modified.........

    That looks like "The Fast & the Furious 7: Tesco's Car Park Drift", right down to the car looking like it has shopping trolley wheels!! :p

    im with merlin on drifting, its shite. when i was building top fuel motors, they did drift days, and we would have to take the million pound drag car out the workshop to get it in the trailer, but the max power drifting wankers had left little shards of metal from their tyres all over the place, the wheels alone on the drag car are worth more than ANY drift car. my camaro is kinda made as a drift car, fibreglass body, high power motor, low to the ground, but it makes a better drag car.

    OK, here's some extreme scooter silliness with turbines and jets.





    Could be embarrassing at the lights if you stall and there's nobody with a leaf blower about :p

    i thought you was only 19 year old,,,,,,,,how the hell do you remember when all this was happening??,,,lol

    iam a fair bit older than you and all this started in the 90's,,,,lexus lights was the all the rage over 10 years ago but they soon went out of fashion

    to be honest,,,,,,,vauxhall corsas are getting abit thin on the ground compared to what used to be about

    remember iam talking about mk1 cars here,,,,,,not all the new shape shite

    forgot the old metro,,,,,,,,a lowered gti was a right little monster,,,,,,,f**k i want all these cars mentioned!!!! lol
