Default chop shop

i'm just watching that chop shop with jonny vegas on it, now they got a mk2 golf all up and running with the subaru running gear, if they had left it like that and just re-built it back up to look standerd or mabey with some nice wide arches it would be an awesome car (which is what jonny vegas wanted in the first place), then that stupid loud mouth forighn idiot gets his hands on it and absolutely fucks it up

look at the state on this





how is that in any way good looking?

the bell end

I'm still amazed at how these are road legal

As said, if just left alone after fitting suburu running gear then it would be great, but after he got his hands on it...

seen the one when they wanted to put a bigger engine in the mk3 xr2i fiesta and rather than just taking out the cvh and dropping the zetec out of the mondeo in on the same gearbox job done simples they chopped the whole front end of the mondeo off and then bodged it into the front on the fiesta running about 20 degrees of camber "ah its ok that will be fine " would not catch me going anywhere it lol

What a fucking abortion, how can anyone think that actually looks good?

As said above, would have been a cool project if they didnt let stevie wonder style it.

Oh dear another abortion of a car created by these guys

Scoob and Golf hybrid had the potential to be such an awesome project but what they've ended up with could only be purchased by a Max Power reader.

This programme is the biggest load of shite ever, with some little twat who wastes cars.

That leepu's taste is in his arse, how these cars manage to be road legal and what idiots would buy them i'll never know.

That bald headed one who gobs off all the time does my head in. As for that leepu, he bangs on about he cant get on with it until he can picture his design then it still ends up looking kack when he decides what to do!. I always thought they didnt look safe.

I agree with all of you. I loved the MK2 for it`s boxy pure 80`s looks and mateing it with the WRX AWD Turbo running gear just made it awsome !! ..Personally i would have left it at that. A sorry looking 80`s golf boy racer shopping trolly with disguised race car performance.
My deam is to make something similar one day. But using a 2 door BMW E30 instead of a MK2 Golf and mateing it onto a Sierra Sapphire floor with 4x4 cossie running gear instead of the Subaru Impreza WRX.
Any ideas much apriciated.
