Show Us Your Motors!

A real each to their own moment tbh, that said, The wheels really dont work on it. Someone above said it right when they said get some normal alloys on it and some tyres that fit. Will improve it no end cause it looks like the actual car is rather tidy.
 
Its not that bad to be honest, if you think thats bad you should see some of the Honda Civics on the Civic forum, they are so low with wheels and tyres so wide and at such an angle they will have you scratching your head trying to figure out how they drive it whilst laughing at why they even think its a good idea to do it in the first place and I dont even want to know how much it costs!

But yeah, its too low and the wheels are too wide other than that it looks quite tidy

Calling a car crap is not a personal attack and it should be allowed imo. It's this brutal honesty that makes this sub section so entertaining. If someone doesn't want their car abused, they should refrain from posting pictures of it on the internet, which is the home of abuse.

Can you imagine if every post was allowed to contain a condition that people could only respond if they liked the car? It's like that bloke who said 'this post is non-negotiable' (or something like it, someone's got it in their signature).

Hardly an agressive stretch, I quite like it really.

Is calling a car crap, rude? Maybe, but it's not personal rudeness therefore surely within the rules. I personally don't mind if people are rude to me on the internet.

Is it me or is there serious positive camber on the front right? Maybe the angle of the photo / wheels not straight.

Then as soon as he says something in return (yeah a bit ott with the swearies) hes the one in the wrong :S few people need to grow up and respect other peoples choices of cars wether in your eyes its the wrong choice or not, end of the day, not your car, not your money.

Can you not read? I just said that his car looked rubbish. That's hardly a personal attack. I tell people at work that their cars look rubbish everyday. They don't tell me to **** off. They just agree and apologise for forcing people to see it.

Well it's certainly not a disgrace of a car, maybe a bit of trend following. Captain_Slick came out with one of his cretinous comments as per usual and someone's taken exception to it. It's the way /\ndy reacted that opened the floodgates of abuse. No need to tell anyone to **** off on a forum, if you can't take someone else's opinion then don't post the car..

I really don't see how saying that his car looks rubbish is really a cretinous comment. Infact, I don't see how any of those quotes you've digged out are either. They're not as bad as some of the things you've said in response to other peoples cars. People in glass houses, an' all that.

I haven't posted pictures of my car because I don't consider it to be worthy of posting and people would probably tell me it looks rubbish. This thread isn't an internet version of Top Trumps anyway so what I drive doesn't matter in the slightest. ¬_____¬

In all fairness, it was quite funny though :o

Someone's put time and effort into that car, and it looks nice and tidy. If someone called mine crap I'd tell them to **** off as well :D

I said it looked rubbish. Not crap. Are you all half illiterate or something?

He posts a picture of his car. I think it looks rubbish. I post my opinion. Similarly, many other people have posted their cars and I've said that they look awesome, wikkid, bling, etc. That's what this thread is for. I don't really appreciate being made out to be the big bad wolf when the regulars on this forum get away with much much worse.

I think there are far more civil and polite way of giving your opinion on a car. You wouldn't take the same approach in a real social situation, so why should the internet be any different?

I also believe the comments on his car were far more "personal" than him simply saying '**** off'.

For the record, I see nothing particularly wrong with it. It looks tidy enough, the stretch isn't excessive, and it sure beats the majority of chavved up motors with tasteless, over-sized wheels, neons, silly exhausts etc.

What are you going on about? The internet is different to real life for many many reasons.

If I had said "Your car looks rubbish and so do you", you might have had a point.

The car is styled how he likes it therefore you're insulting his taste/style.

Is this not a personal attack of sorts?

/devils advocate.
 
He's expressed an opinion that his car looks good (by doing it in the first place) - we expressed an opinion that it looks crud. Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing

10/10 for pointing out the obvious :p

I was stating that attacking his car could be classed as a personal attack not if it was the done thing to do.

I think your post is best suited to a GD joke thread.

So you hate VW Polo's then?

or do you have a problem with his personal choices on how to style the car?

It's quite simple to figure out and at best I was just looking at things from another view hence the / at the end of my initial post.

Either way I don't really care, people on GD will continue to post rubbish all day long :)
