Please can someone tell me WHY people do this????

Does ANYONE think it looks good

Any pre-drivers on here? Younger than 17?

Does YOUR age-group look up to this sort of thing

Maybe we're missing something here guys?

Thought NOT!!

I'm 16 and personally I piss myself laughing every time I see a chav car (nothing like a tastefully modded mk1/2 escort for me ) but alot of people from school are into the Saxos/Corsas etc ...was recently in my ICT lesson and overheard 3 dosy chav kids looking at various websites...the one quote that I overheard that stuck in my head ... "I want that exhaust. It'll sound shit, but it'll be loud as fuck"

the spoilers on the back... give downforce.... thus enabling the front to lift and allowing the front wheels to spin and look the car look powerful!!

they guy aint as stupid as you first think

I might only be 16, but so far i've owned

MK5 Cortina 1.6L
MK5 Cortina 2.0 Ghia
MK4 Escort XR3i
MK3 Fiesta 1.3
Sierra Sapphire 2.0 GLSi
E28 BMW 528i

Currently got a SWB Series 3 Landy sat outside, needs a bit of work (fancy a V8 ) but it's the best motor i've owned so far, as I have a mate who has private land and so I just rag the tits out of it

Also, all cars bought with my own money (3 part time jobs )
