How things change in such a short time! I remember seeing the CL back in 2004 when it wasn't supercharged. Looks very cool.

Karl.

GhettooooO!

pimp

Certainly has changed over the years!

Got a real nice stance on the classics.

i like the approach of your car mate, its not the typical, if you know what i mean, its your own, you've defo made your mark on it and i love it!! And its fast as fook now! Ace... I do like the classics too...

This car is great! just one question.. are those things in the roof rack just for show or do they actually get used?

The cylindrical thing is a BBQ and it most certainly does get used. The rest of it is tat.

I have the best thing for my roof rack. EVER!
