Your cars history

Postby pHaT`eL » June 26th, 2008, 7:40 pm

This might seem like a bit of a dud thread, but its been something on my mind for a bit.

Just thought it would be good to see a before and after pic of your car from when you bought it, both inside and out.

Also, for those who have sold there cars, maybe a pic of what it looks like now if youve got one, Sunny will no doubt win this :P

Heres mine.

Pete your car is truly amazing. Very classy
I wont put my car up otherwise people will have nightmares :(
They shall plant vineyards and drink the wine of them. And they shall build their lay cities and live in them
And they shall also make gardens and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, which I have given them
And the mountains shall drop sweet wine and the hills shall melt.

EDIT: That last photo is before the ED steering wheel and EL Ghia kickpanels, but at least it's from the right angle, and shows the interior properly. I really struggle to get good interior pics. Also the before interior pic includes the MP3 player which wasn't there when I got the car. It still had the tape deck when I got it.

Wow that's the biggest transformation so far. It's a pity about the recent events with MRDOSE.

Maybe I should get a different cluster. Or, maybe you should STFU?

If you don't like it, fine. I do. And because I do, I couldn't care less what your opinion is. Congratulations! You have wasted 5 minutes of both yours and my lives or your worthless crap.
