Fake Cars

Yep, its at the opposite side of the carriageway to the Rover lane, you know, the one that is a different colour

i'm being blonde today and for some reason dont get this at all

None of the lanes on a motorway are a different colour though ?

 

[Fr0dders]

Did it have the Cosworth built 2.9l 24v V6 engine in it?

he's being sarcastic.

yes it does and he knows it too.

Thats his own car he's posted

This was parked outside my house last night and it had a Cosworth badge on it.

WTF?

Historically, the hard shoulder used to be a slight tint of red. These days it isn't as common, but still...

It took me a few seconds to realise what you meant

But you are used to being in that lane, you should have got it

Not met up with any of you lads for years, need to sort that out!

 

[agw_01]

I've not visited that lane for about 18 months. My car is good like that

And it's your own bloody fault, we hold enough meets!

They did do a Cosworth didn't they?

Seen an old bile yellow "M3" with a big spoiler that had "pole position" written on the back of it. 10 to 1 it's actually a 316i, which is actually a 1.9, with an automatic gearbox.

being a yellow E36 there's a good chance it's an M3... Dakar Yellow was one of the M3 colours

 

[WillyNelson]

Yea, the 2.9 24v jobbie.

yes

I'm gunna put a Mazda 3 MPS spoiler and Exhaust on my 2.0l Mazda 3.

1. Spoiler looks 100x better
2. Exhaust is really really good for a N/A engine.


But i'd never ever go to the extent of making putting badges on my car to make people think its a mps/

But everyone says because they didn't put a Cosworth badge on 99% of them then it can't be a Cosworth

There was also a guy in Plymouth who had gone great lengths with his MR2 to Ferrari 355 converstion, even getting Ferrari embroided seats, and then insisted in driving it around bouncing it off its tinny jap limiter, lol!

I have seen that goon!!

 

[The Running Man]

theres a bit of a banger in our works parking lot... to me it looks old, like manta GTE style..

its got stick on side exit exhausts, matt black paint, one sill and on the front bumper only 1 side of the front splitter.

I am building a fake 306 GTI-6 out of a 205 GTi

My last build was a fake Lotus 7, with a cheap kit and a crappy motorcycle engine.

I suck

One of the nicest sounding V6's ever.

My father had one and although Ugly as sin, it was a fun car

I'm not sure engine transplants really count the same as re badging a car.

Nothing wrong with a bit of OEM+.
