But why

Link

Probably hard to drive because it has no brakes and it has to be one of the worst looking mods I have ever seen.

it's worse than a fiat duna!

ONLY ONE OF ONE

Well, that's something to be thankful for then!

"The true meaning of Hot Rod" lol!

As in: It's a load of dick?

$40K??????

I know that much $ is worth about 20p here but even so!

Cheers,
James

"The true meaning of Hot Rod"

True meaning of "Crap", more like! I mean, even supposing for a microsecond that doing it was a sensible thing, why wouldn't you make the wheel arches smooth curves, rather than like the edge of a 50p piece!

Amazing... I'm almost tempted to watch it to see if anyone bids.

If it wasn't a skip....

NEEDS TO BE IN A MUSEUM SOMEWHERE.
- one with no windows or doors so no one ever has to see it

IT IS EXPENSIVE AND SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY.
- it is crap and you would have to have lost all your marbles to even consider enquiring

THIS IS THE TRUE MEANING OF HOTROD.
- so now we all know to avoid hotrods.

this one has been doing the rounds on the X1/9 forums, you can imagine what those guys have to say about it! I think il keep my exxy locked up away from such hideous internet evil.

Here are some nice ones:






and mine, not quite so mint


Not quite a V8...:

you lot are a bunch of losers, what a fanatstic car, looks like a million dollars I'd say.

I'd bid if it only wasn't so far away, not sure about the the no brakes? Maybe for the best for a quick demise?

'The true meaning of Hot Rod'


hmmm so that's an overheated lump of metal then????


Marcus - 19/12/06 at 04:48 PM

Yikes - nuff said


RazMan - 19/12/06 at 04:52 PM

Looks like a six year old's drawing come to life.................. damn fugly


Marcus - 19/12/06 at 05:30 PM

Anyone remember the episode of the Simpsons where Homer designs a car for his estranged bro'?


RichieW - 19/12/06 at 06:01 PM

"Caravan" springs to mind looking at those pics.

I take it that you have never seen that much money then?


ettore bugatti - 19/12/06 at 08:08 PM

H*ly smoke!

Is that the lastest Ferrari, Sir?


jambojeef - 19/12/06 at 08:28 PM

I always fancied an X1/9.......is that a confession?

Like the black one in those shots.....


zetec7 - 19/12/06 at 09:48 PM

I've always liked the X1-9...until I saw this one. Left a bad taste in my eyes (?!?). Seller says it needs to be in a museum...I think it needs to be in a hole...with dirt shoveled over it.


Chippy - 19/12/06 at 10:36 PM

Reminds me a bit of a Scoda, or Lada, fill the fuel tank up and double the value. Ray.


Spyderman - 20/12/06 at 03:56 PM

I was going to have a moan at you lot for knocking the X1/9, thinking how can they be so nasty about someone's modified classic. Then I went and had a look at the link.

Boy am I glad I kept quiet!

The guy certainly has a sense of humour asking that much for it!


t.j. - 20/12/06 at 08:27 PM

Battlestar GALACTICA!


soggy 3 - 21/12/06 at 12:50 AM

What made me laugh was he wants the money(the starting bid is $40,000)paid in cash!!


iank - 21/12/06 at 01:42 AM

Amazing as it might seem he got no bids.
Never mind what the X1/9 owners are saying what are the big bucks US hotrod crowd going to do to him?
One barrel of tar and a sack of goose feathers to go
