Too slammed for me... reminds me of the advert with the crying modified golfs... like the wheel arch extensions though  :smiley:

MR Pea how do you get the back bumper to fit, when the arch extension is that wide at the back.

....

Even from just the pics I can see it's been extremely well done and very high quality. But I hate that extreme slammed look and very strongly disapprove of any Dub being debadged.

Metallic Golden Urine colour, but I like it. Upholstery looks fabulous.

So overall I'm very undecided. Each to their own 8)

It's a showcase of talent and a design exercise for the company, it doesn't have to make sense - but it has to be as outragous as they can possibly make it. Job done   :happy2:

This will be the most important, talked about and copied MKV for a good while. Which is good in some respects as it gives the MKV a much needed shove in the ass... but in much the same way as I'm sick of the sight of brown already this year, because of the cloning, it'll become "ordinary" pretty soon. People need to get their own ideas instead of buying a generic "scene recipe" car to win shows - love it or hate it, this isn't safe for sure and sets the bar!!

I appreciate show cars like art, not for their every day functionality.

I really like it but would put Gti lights on the front and r32 or LED (AKA red robins) lights on the back.  Finish is superb, really impressive paint job

....That describes it perfectly! The trouble is that personally I can't get my head around building a car which doesn't have every day functionality - The joy of driving is then totally lost.

When I was in the bike racing scene (bicycle, not motorbike) it used to really piss us off when some people just used a state-of-the-art bike as a wall ornament. Earl March (Goodwood's owner) pissed me off greatly I remember! Cars/bikes are for driving/riding imo.

I think this is the pic which shows it at its best : -

 amazing work mate really liking this. beautiful show car. obviously wouldnt drive it every day (wouldn't want to damage anything) but it looks proper trick i remember my dear uncle having a similar styled mk1 back in the late eighties and ever since i have been wanting to have the time n money to do something similar, just remember rolling up to his house and at the weekends he always rolled it out onto the drive so everyone could see it but even as a kid i remember thinking "unk, these peeps don't appreciate it as much as us!" cant wait until i can get a garage and have a project like this  :happy2:

when you got your rims did you have any "special" time with them before putting them on your car  :love: :confused:
