Hi All,

I found this interesting restyled 924S on the web. What do you reckon???

This chappie seems to have cornered the 924 and 944 market for West Yorkshire.

Regards,

The wheels are nice.

He's obviously spent / wasted a lot of money (depends on your view - each to his own).... a shame it will fail an MOT then.

Looks horrible. What makes a D reg 924 worth 8K?

Did have a giggle over that one when it was on ebay, why you would do that to a car worth no more than £2k in pristene original condition beats me!

And have you seen the spacers on the rears :shock: And I still can't figure out why they would fit 944 doorcards and leave the pockets off :?

They sell a lot of cars like that, ( well iv seem 4 sale ) there was a red 944 a while back, just as bad, without the snake.

That's the rear bridge spoiler on sale via eBay 45 pounds, and it's a terrablie fit 4 a road car, I tryed one, plus u need 2 paint the rubber modlings. De rubbered the rear bumper and plugged the holes???

Maybe as 2 k track car. Intersteing how the seats are a close macth 4 the dash?

Not nice IMO

I'd also be a bit cautious of a dealer where all the 944's they have for sale have the box cills on?!?

Interior is hideous :puke: Outside isn't much better either :evil: . Aside from bad taste no reason why it should fail a ticket though?

At what point did the creator of that monstrosity step back and say "wow that is looking gooood, I reckon I've quadrupled it's value" :lol: looks like something my 7 yr old daughter has just made with her meccanno set.
