a guy doing bog laps with his nissan 180 at home time with a for sale sign on it,
and a bunch of bad cheap and very nasty ricers (paint matching optional)picking up their gfs from school and not a p plate on em ....that just sad
every single ricer with their windows down and all u can hear is bass

in conclusion i think i may have found rice central in perth and tomoz i will take my camera

Thats our future your looking at, and I think we're in trouble.

I don't think festivas even have a tacho from factory though.

[andrewts]

Well, since they are in essence 121s, then yes you can, as the non-base model 121s had tachometers. Don't know why...

[merlin]

Need I say anything?

Festiva and 121 were completely unrelated. The Festivas were actually made by Kia (sort of successor to the Kia Rio) and badged as a Ford. The 121 was made in Japan by Mazda

I see! The Kia bit is interesting, I'll never own one now.

But by the same token, if a 121 can get a tacho, then a Festiva surely...

[Reign]

saw a AU falcon today... with a skyline GT-R badge... :/

[The Monty]

14 inch cannon, plastic hubcaps and a 11000 rpm tacho on a stocko excel.

[Yellow_Festiva]

Only 1 of the Festiva models had a tacho, mine is a manual but no tacho.

And if treated right there aint nothing wrong with a Kia Avella / Ford Festiva anyway...

[nikos]

I hate seeing vn through vs commodores lowered where the back of the car is way lower than the front. Also recent HSV body parts on early commodores. Yuck!

[pertuan]

An "XR" badge from either an XR6 or XR8 on a Focus CL. Thats base model guys.... BASE model!!! Why oh WHY would you put an XR badge on a base model?

It didn't even have a bodykit.

[RIPGMH]

Any part installed on Pimp my Ride. Can you imagine those cars 5 or 10 years down the track?

They didn't come out with a tacho, but there is no reason to put a tacho that is bigger than the steering wheel in a car like that!!!

Oh my god! It's like they've done it as a joke or something!

My pet hate is LED's and lights - absolutely pointless modifications.

The comments go back to August 06. I wonder why he cant sell it :

[LUXO_8]

it was on ebay before he put it on there too....

scary thing is, panel and paint wise - its better than my fairlane:S
and only 250,000 on the clock (mine had that when i bought it almost 5 years ago....)

[irsa76]

Spinner hubcaps, neon, stickers and pointless gauges. I saw a VN which had a heap of chrome gauge cups on the bonnet, up the pillar and across the dash. They even had a wire coming out the back down to the mounting stud. BUT, there was only white plastc insert instead of a gauge and the ones on the bonnet looked like they were actually glued on!

[nikos]

I hate vn through vt commodores that have been slammed so that the rear end is way lower than the front. Also late hsv fornt ends on early commies. Yuck!

[Annie1962]

Dunno if this comes into the category, but I HATE seeing 'No Fear" stickers.. or ones that are on a car that a girl drives saying "this ***** bites".

ugh

[MITCHAY]

I saw a very old Corolla with a cannon and a flashing neon stick on the parcel shelf doing laps near the club last night.

People are free to do what they want to their cars but be prepared that people will laugh at it.

That isn't the bad thing though. They then drive them around like they are HSVs. My god do those V6s sound awfull at WOT.

[S3SR]

theres no all of the above

huge spoilers on cars that would NEVER need it
neons on most cars
huge blingy rims or anything really chromy
those motorbike exhaust tips
oversized mud flaps and 40 spot lights on utes with huge aerials that most never use/need....even worse on a sedan
monster tachos
cars that are so crappy lowered to the ground, exhaust louder then a bomb going off and no power what so ever trying to race a standard falcon..tisk tisk tisk
supercheap mesh grill insert..dunno but i hate the stuff
cheap pedals and steering wheels and gear knobs
doof doof that has so much distortion.... or in a car that rattles to buggery
those cheap crappy mirrors
imitation seats and supercheap ones

or aftermarket drivers that have to beat anything driving a falcon or commo because they have an imported car.....

sorry i dont like most supercheap gear, or rice......bloody wog haha

EDIT: dont mind the odd airhorn or fuzzy dice...i have lightning mcqueen on my dash...

Ha ha, a mate saw my tacho yesterday. All he could say was...."What have you got that for? Mate you ARE 40 years old, not 17!" My wife agreed with him. Could be time to sell my car I think and grow up.

[broken_suave]

Heh, yes I saw that poor fairlane a while ago MADNC and immediately thought of you. I hoped to god you didnt see it. I cant beleive what they've done, it goes so far beyond stupid.. and the insult continues when in the description he's trying to sell it by telling prospective buyers to 'imagen lowered with tint'. then it gets worse with people asking if the 'wing' is adjustable cause "i need to know for highspeed track work" I hope to god they're giving him ****. I'm still praying that its just a really good photoshop joke..

Meh... Don't listen to them - I'm 38 and don't mind a bit of fun - it just means you aren't a sheep that has to be like everyone else. I like the motto of the Ulysees [Motorcycle] Club - Grow Old Disgracefully!

[walker]

where do I start, neon, hubbies, spinners, stick on vents, race look sticker on fuel cap, there is so much more the list could go on forever

[mrnsx]

a lime green paintjob with 2 x 12" subs playing tupac in a 88 corolla.

[Ives]

Euro-plates on a VY Commodore
Euro-plates on Mitsubishi Pajero
Euro-plates on Camry Sportivo
Euro-plates on Rav 4

Very personalized-plus plates on faeces-box.

The "Bankstown Mo-Mullet Brigade" & anything that goes pppssshhhttt loudly for no reason....

Ha ha, all the Sudanese in Blacktown are driving those now, and running into everything daily. If you see one with 20" chrome wheels, give it a WIDE berth. I know of at least FOUR such Commodores attached to a single townhouse in my block!!!
