I don't like the little tires on my rabbit, but this is a bit much I think.

It would be fun if it had a nice paint job and withheld absolutely zero practicality. A show car.

I like it when the mk1's are raised :P
the weird ... design?..... around the wheel wells is a little ... less than desired
what is it supposed to be? degradation? Corrosion?

I think it's where they ground away to add wheel flares; those fenders are definitely fatter than the stock ones, you can see the weld lines, looks like.

Ah that brought back memories.... I had two black 1300GT 127's  Rare as hen's teeth! As fast as an xr3i.  I was even intending to put a turbo on one to make it run like a Renault 5, till by an act of God  one got hit by a cattle truck full of horsey-horsey-green-welly women, and the other simply got smashed up by vandals.... :cry:

Guess I'm the only one. I think it's kinda cool! And at least it shows interest in cars. I probably wouldn't do it, but that's just because at this moment, I just want a car that runs back and forth to work.
