Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[Joey D]

I know buying an Astra is questionable but what am I looking at?

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Giant Vauxhall badge in the US?

 

[buickgnx88]

Yes Dylan, what's the questionable mod? Is it the badging?

 

[Joey D]

Eh the Vauxhall badge isn't that questionable. That's all it is afterall.

 

[buickgnx88]

He's not quite as into cars as I am, so he probably doesn't know that the Saturn Astra is just our copy of the Vauxhall.

 

[rattrod17]

oh but i do. just wasnt sure if i knew what i was lookin at.

 

[buickgnx88]

Haha alright then. I'll bet it's just someone putting Vauxhall badges on their Saturn.

RE: clear wheels- Showing off drum brakes? Showing off your expensive Brembo brakes that now receive inadequate cooling? In fact, I wonder if they could handle the heat under full braking...

This used to be a Smart

I so hope this is real

And as I wrote on youtube.

How to ruin a charger.
Ugly color, check.
Horrible interior, check.
Rims over 22 inches, check.
An overall lack of taste, check.
Stupid spinners, check.
Well good job man.

And I saw somewhere that this charger has a V8, so why did the guy remove the HEMI badges ? **sigh**

That's how they do it down south!

 

[Terronium-12]

These poor vehicles.

And I'm not even kidding.

 

[Famine]

Amazingly,

used to be an Acura.

Well, the back of it did. Or at least was originally stapled to an Acura...

 

[McLaren]

Oh god. He's from Texas.

 

[Thatman]

@Famine
Thank you...as many times as ive sen that image I never knew the story behind it...

 

[TheCracker]

So that's a Honda and not a Greenwood Corvette?

 

[Time_Attack]

Given the lights I assume it to be an 86-89 integra sedan.

The front almost seems like it would look good on a different car. Like a real C5 corvette.

 

[TheCracker]

Jaguar XK8 Shooting Hearse?

Almost awesome. Just stumbling at the last hurdle, and presumably put down by the vet.



Apparently owned by Jonathan Ross's wife Jane Goldman.

 

[Time_Attack]

Reminds me of a BMW M coupe. Could be very awesome. Its just not there yet.

 

[TheCracker]

Worse thing is, i helped pay for that with my TV license fee.

 

[Time_Attack]

You have to have a license for your TV?

 

[TheCracker]

Sort of. It's complicated and would seem inexplicable to anyone not from the UK. And Famine.

 

[Time_Attack]

Sometimes I think things in America are a bit excessive. Then I talk to someone from the UK...

That's got to be Fourez's insaner brother.

Time Attack: brits pay a "privilege to watch/own TV" tax (hey guys, clear that up, is it to own the telly, or recieve signal on it?) because they don't have commercials. the BBC runs exclusively on the fees garnered from this licence. this was the info I had last, btw.

 

[Time_Attack]

Isn't watching BBC programming taxing enough?

 

[Famine]

Time Attack: brits pay a "privilege to watch/own TV" tax (hey guys, clear that up, is it to own the telly, or recieve signal on it?)

It is "to operate equipment capable of receiving a television signal at the time it is broadcast".

because they don't have commercials.

Oh we do, just not on the two BBC channels (or the four BBC channels and BBC News 24, if you have cable/satellite/DVB).

 

[homeforsummer]

The TV licence is one of the few things I'm happy being taxed on. I watch more BBC programming than anything else, they make more programs that I actually want to watch than anyone else, and I appreciate the lack of commercials.
