All I can say is....
Oh dear.
I especially like the tasteful (ahem) superimposed picture of Ali G. That Pug 206 CC looks "great", I think cars in repulsive colours and with
pathetic front splitters look really fast, I wouldn't dare take something like that on once my car's on the road.
"Power, sound and on the ground" whatever, the latter two are debateable, the first one is just crap.

It's when you hear of people spending £25K+ to make a Vauxhall Nova look 'cool' that I despair (examples given in recent top gear/5th gear
programmes).
For that money you can build a respectable Ultima! Or buy a 2nd-hand Porsche 911, a very respectable Cateringvan, Wastefield, or Dax (yes, in spite
of what I've said elsewhere, C* and W* do make nice cars - I just wouldn't spend MY money on a C*!)
Some people need re-educating...
...with a big stick! (I couldn't spell shill.., shilae, shall.., you know, a big Irish stick )

Sad, sad sad sad, sad,sad. Sad sad sad sad, sad sad,sad sad sad. sad. sad sad,sad. How do i join.
Looked on a UK cruising site recently (for a larf - Honestly) to see people going into raptures about their modified cars. How much it had cost for
the purple paint that now adorned their Novas and how many watts of loud unpleasant crap they could play in the carpark near my house every night
(Bastards). and under the heading 'Tuning' where such extreme and effective engine mods as:
Silicone plug leads. (Awsome)
Splitfire plugs. (Wow)
Chrome rocker cover. (How fast will that make it go!)
K&N filter. (must have bought that by mistake)
All of which shpould just fail to increase the power enough to carry the weight of extra paint, let alone the kilos of glue on plastic that probably,
alone, costs more than my locost will!

I've never understood these new fangled radiograms they fit these days.
I guess you probably need it to hear the archers over the noise of your 5" tail pipe and that big tin dustbin mid subrange woof tweeter rattling
around in the boot.

Each to his own!
I drive a moddified car, and i'm also building a kit car!
Does that mean i'm only half sad?
To be fair, I've got a sub in my boot, and it is plenty powerful, but that's not the reason I've got it. I've got it because a car is one of the worst
listening environments for music, and it literally eats low frequencies, therefore they need to be produced at higher volumes and with more clarity
than in a normal room, so a sub is the only way to go, but you do need to balance it to your other speakers, not just have it as loud as possible,
shaking the windows out.
I saw someone with a modified and ICE'd up car not all that long ago, and he couldn't open the boot because it had been delocked, and had two 12" subs
in the back that he turned up so loud it caused the paint on the boot to crack. What can that have been doing to his ears?

Loudest car stereo
The saisho stereo fitted in the mk2 Ford Escort belonging to Wayne Fletcher (GB) reached a momentary peak noise level of 312 dB whilst waiting at
traffic lights next to some girls in Stockport Cheshire on 8th July 1988. This noise level is equivalent to 8 Concordes taking off inside the car.
The girls walked off.
Car Customisation
Juged as a proportion of the overall value of the car, the accessories fitted to the Mk2 Ford Escort of Wayne Fletcher(GB) add up to the world's most
expensive car customisation project 105,751%. Between 8th March 1986 and 22nd September 1996, Fletcher had spent a grand total of £63,456.99 at the
Stockport branch of Halfords in an attempt to attract girls to his vehicle. His fruitless purchases include a Paddy Hopkirk Full Body Syling Kit
(£3500), "Nightrider" style Disco Stop Lights (£199), Spilt 45 Weber Carburettors x 4(£200), Scorpion talking Alarm (£500) and a chromium plated Mock
Twin Exhaust extension(£285).
the car is currently valued at £50 to £60.
