could be in the weong section but its a photo right :)

it is genuine there are more pics of it basically it has a wheel bolt wedged in-between the hubs to give the excessive camber i read somewhere on a forum he kept having to stop every 15miles to re tighten the hubs up!

Yes it's real, and the owner is blatantly more concerned about looking 'cool' than the safety of himself and other road users.

Prick.

wow looks completely put on, how does it turn, looks over the top

think the car got impounded due to being unsafe, there was a huge "this guy is a tool" type thread.

he did just loosen the bolts an wedge another in the gap.

he must go thru tyres like theres no tomorro lol

he's an idiot for being stupid enough to think he'd get away with it.

Hes an idiot for thinking anything positive about it

it is very negative

What a waste of a mk1 golf :mad:

ok there not my favourite Vw but i rather see one off theme in the street over a corsa/106

some folk :thumbsdown:

well cheers for the info and that ford thread link, what a bunch of 'tunnelvision' p***ks, id apreciate a good looking ford if i came across one

it is very negative

lol :lol:

I was more annoyed that he thought he'd done nothing wrong!!

he's an idiot for being stupid enough to think he'd get away with it.

Hes an idiot for thinking anything positive about it

you're both WRONG... He's just an idiot, end of story!

well i think it looks awesome haha.....very unpractical.....but could be used as a gr8 show car if ratted up :)

it is very negative

:lol: win.

It looks completely ridiculous, and aside from the pikeyness of getting the camber the contact patch of the tyres must be about the size of a £2 coin which isn't going to be too safe either.

i dont understan why the FIRE department are checking it out , lol

Looks aweful, god knows what he was thinking, and I'm glad he got pulled twice and his car got impounded. He's even more of a idiot for not getting it back and letting a good mk1 go to waste though.

:shock: When i first saw this in PVW mag awhile ago it made me chuckle

and i liked it for the fact he was pushing the boundrys but now i seen how

did it, What a nutter man how could he think 'yea that be a good enough spacer' :smoke:

i think the inside of the tyre is going to wear a bit faster than the outside to be honest.

he's a champ.

is also spotted in the AWOL vid in that situation, pretty funny

but did he say he drove it normal for the trip to the show, then popped the bolts in for the long weekend show? also he did it as a laugh. this isnt a daily or anything serious, he just did it because he could lol

If you go onto PassionFord, the thread is probably still running where they were slagging VWs off. :lol:
