I don't think i ever had a paint can exhaust or huge spoiler but i did have a 205 1.8d that was blue with a white bonnet that got a few laughs at the local cruise thanks to standard speakers cranked right up and me shouting out hey what u think of my s@$ter lol it looked like a right farm car. the landrover boys weren't happy when i showed a couple up on the local offroad course though lol

Ah man! You do realise that several of the lads on here are part of the 'I drive a Xmas tree, look at my fairy lights' brigade?

Must admit, that doesn't look bad. Wouldn't have it on a Cav but that looks ok, in it's own way. Looks like something out of Halo or something. :thumb

Im a big fan of wide mouth body kits and massive spoilers...
Have a loud install too...

I was a muppet when i started out though....
Had a 1.0L 5dr metro in bright blue... thought i would be a right styling genius and bolt another metro bumper upside down on the rear bumper....
also had a bolt on exhaust tip...
Drilled a hole in the austin badge on the front and added a sidelight bulb to an indicator relay...

Im ashamed everytime i look back on it :(
Was a beautiful car untill i got hold of it :'(

Yep got to have a decent sound system especially with cars that at youngest are 16 years old the standard stuff is just to old and worn out for any decent listening
