The Hyundai isn't the *worst*

I’m sort of OK with that Hyundai. Sort of.

It’s the yellow wipers that introduce a special level of awfulness to the Jazz.

I think it’s the poor quality of the work and the stock wheels that kill it. It’s certainly better than the others.

Honestly.

I do like a smooth widebody.

I noticed those straight away too. I think they started painting and just got carried away.

The fibreglass work is rubbish/ ruined, but it could be okay.

I just typed it into craigslist. I was very disappointed. Most of the cars were well done restorations or V8 swapped things. Custom or tuned seem to yield better results for me locally. Modified might be too hard to spell, though. Maybe I need to find some misspellings?

The Jazz/Fit doesn’t look terrible , a less opulent front bumper and unpainted wipers would make it somewhat palatable.

The Hyundai does seem to be proving popular.

Typing in bodykit brought some interesting returns too.

Some wheels with more offset would definitely improve it somewhat.

I like the Jazz since I like crazy mini vans as for the Hyundai, it is almost good. The wheels look buried and it is riding a bit high but fix those and it will be decent not good just decent which in the world of modified cars is like a Nobel prize.

Since I drive a car with the same chassis and engine I can say the paint is all it has in common with a TVR.

I did see that one, just got bored of pasting photos in haha. The stickers claiming parts it doesn’t even have really make it.

Search “Honda” or “JDM”

The Audi looks like they painted it without masking off anything, so it’s all white now. The snout on that 300ZX too, wow.

Hehe I often change the postcode to something random and childish when I link to autotrader, you’re the first person to notice.

Guy selling his Volvo s40 and Crx in one sale. Notice that this is a screenshot from another used car website, meaning his car doesn’t sell very well there. Oh yeah, no lowballers.

That Mercedes is really nice, I need it. I don’t know what it is about Vauxhall/ Opel Combos put there’s a lot of modified ones around here.

That is both good and bad. Bad because TVRs are awesome, good because TVRs are horribly unreliable.

My car is French so I doubt the reliability is all that good either...

If it makes you feel any better I drive a VW and they’re supposedly not that great either. I have yet to find that out.

Jokes aside mine is actually meant to be reasonably reliable, it just needs frequent timing belt changes (mine is due in August).
