But then the Megane would ahve looked like a completely other car. The design is damn fine. Shame it wasn't finished. Could have been very nice.

Plus, who or where does it say they are trying to make it into another car? They're modifying

From the original Ebay listing:

"...the car has been designed to replicate the Renault Megane Trophy Cup..."

Well, that was previously unnoticed. I now join you in saying why didn't he get a megane? We have to remember they took his money, so replicating the Megane probably bumped the price up £4,000
 
The reason why i did the programme is because I was in a crap load of debt, i never heard about the programme till I started filming, I did quit in the first few weeks as I didnt like benjamin, but they then paid to get my car back from Rayvern Hydraulics and I carried on.

In a way it was worth it, it made me wake up and realise that spending a crap load of money on a car really isnt worth it especially in this day and age.

As for the stilo replicating a Megane.
I wanted to do it with a stilo because it was different, anyone could do it to a megane but not many people to a completly different car.

If it was done by a proper company it would of worked out but I got skanked.

I had the 4x4 because i needed a car to see my missus at the time in essex and I was in Croydon, complete waste of money but oh well!

So they paid £1500 in total I think it was.

Cant remember now was ages ago.

But they also paid for my Hypnotherapy for smoking, a days rallying in a KA, and loads of other bits and bobs which mount up!

...plus the added bonus of your 'problems' being shown on national tv!
 
i've just sat through the first 20 mins of this tripe...
basically, stop drinking, stop smoking, stop doing drugs, stop eating unhealthy food and stop enjoying your car.

What a ****ing load of utter ****e from the BBC. Basically rules me out of everything I enjoy doing.
