Fixed for correctness.
I would never make a good traffic cop because I'd slash every stretched tyre I saw on the road.
Funny that. If I was looking to hire a traffic cop that would be one of the qualifications required for the job.
The one thing I wouldn't do is stretch the tyres, it looks a bit too weird IMO. Just a nice smooth car with small, retro alloys, preferably deep dish chrome ones, and slammed on it's arse. That would do me. I'd also consider a luggage bar for the rear on the 500.

Ive already looked into those wheels, im going to get some in the summer,
Around £1750 aset with tyres
The rusty look on the old VW's looks really cool, but the rusted effect bonnets on the Fiesta and Corsa just look stupid.
I don't get why stretched tyres look any 'cooler' than normally fitted low profile tyres, but I guess I don't have an extreme tyre fetish!

Didn't mean to bump this thread but I can't seem to edit my previous posts - I wanted to add the pic as an attachment because I can't get photobucket at work
Did you know that you can upload to "GALLERY" and store your photos on the forum server. It is also the preferred method as you don't get broken links with the red cross and blank place holders.
Uncle Grimwau's handy hint no.47. :devil:
I didn't know about the Gallery, cheers.

Euro Look, explained. How odd. I like my 500 stock ;-)

Having said that, I wouldn't mind more power. I'd love an Abarth engine in my Lounge, that would be amazing.
What he said ^
Why won't they sell me a lounge with the Abarth mechanicals? That'd be my ideal 500. Well, ideal 500 starting point
