Ow. My eyes!

makes yer eyes water, certainly.

Actually, imagining it in less frenetic colours, it would look very tasty IMO

seems a few people on that site have more money than style

This was posted ages ago. As far as I remember there's a dump valve in it, which combined with the superchip gives 300bhp.

You no like dump valve?

someone pass me a bucket :puking:

looks like the guy got the bhp using nova maths (filter + exhaust x making it look as ugly as fook + meccano spoiler = 300bhp)

I've seen that in a mag before, was ugly then aswell[/list]

hmmmmm another mynheer monster!!!! Have seen this car about before and it certainly doesnt have 300bhp is still running a T25 turbo last time a saw it.

Hmmm

I still think that without the scaffolding on the back and in a more conservative colour scheme it would look OK.

Paul, you are a case in point for old people needing to have eye sight checks... you sight is blatantly failing you.

That's hideous. That bonnet is foul. The colour scheme is stupid and the spoiler.... :nonono:

Alex

I'd already discounted the colour and the spoiler

Thank you for your kind comment anyway

I'm with Sheaf - He could have spent half of the money and ended up with the horsepower he likes to think he has now for real!

OK - Igive in - It's sh1t, it's b0ll0x.

They are well aware of it actually Paul. Last time I reported it to them and I just got back the standard response saying "We are currently dealing with this case", so I don't know if things move slowly with them or if these are just the old photos of it before it was brought to their attention.

Seen it before, still looks cack.

Ewe, whats with the Jap-rims?

The last Rover Mynheer modified was a bleedin standard engined 25 1.4 with exhaust pipes big enough tto fit a small childs head up, which to my inferior knowledge would mean it looses the power.. surely if theres no power goin in with the original pressure from the pipes, what the hell is it doin now? "-" figures?

Just think of the car he could have had if he wasnt so avid to get into "Max Power".. P|ss poor attemt.

OK, not gonna be popular this////
BUT
I quite like it.
No way would I own it, but I respect what has been done.

David220 · Post by **David220** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 8:36 am

Most of the car is an eyesore but I do actually like the back if you get rid of the spoiler, put a decent looking exhaust on and paint it a decent colour.

Obviously a lot of work gone into fitting the back lights which look quite good imo. Just a shame he didn't stop there.
