I've seen some of these GTO kits look okay. This one is awful, not even the worst cataract sufferer could look at this and say nice Ferrari M8.

I quite like them, though I've never seen one other than pictures and these reps can have really awfully dimensions. Take off all the Ferrari junk and just have it as a retro fastback 60s rep (based on an mx5) and it isn't such a bad proposition.

The front end of that would look ace on an otherwise standard MX-5. The back end though? WTF? It's far too wide for the wheels.

It could be nice. Fill the rear arches with wider, dished wheels, twin-carbs on the engine so it looks period, get rid of those absurd F355-style rear lights. It would still be an old MX5 carrying around a bathtub but I don't think it's a million miles away from being passable. Advert says the v5 was altered to read "MX250". WTF? Why bother?

Stock reply to morons who use the DPA as an excuse for everything is "so which of the eight tenets of the DPA would you breach by telling me?".

That brown Astra is some bit of kit. Pretty disastrously presented with the missing bonnet and bumper caps mind you.

How great is that? It looks like a giant before-it's-time CD ghetto blaster, imagine how disappointed you'd be if you put a tacho in it and it didn't play Grandmaster Melle Mel?

That £20k escort must be some sort of record for misguidedness. Surely it's about £2500 and a 6-month wait for a suitable fruitcake buyer?

I am not far from the seller of that Metro and it is very tempting to rock up to view it but refuse to buy it as that would mean handing over my details to a stranger which would be in breach of the DPA....
