I was thinking that car was as bad as it could get until those lights got put on

So someone did you a favour writing off another one, which i assume was equally as hideous, and then you go and buy another one?!

Lol @ Robgooch,

Don't put the mirrors on mate you are making it worse than it is already! Put the clears back on, couple of old styleee RAC badges and LEAVE IT THE FUCK ALONE
