Not that thing again!

 

What a sad way to brankrupt yourself :excl: The ex-ower needs therapy.

 

But for the new owner, at least he could sell all the junk and make back his money, and hopefully turn it back in to a decent 205. But I doubt that will happen, will it?

Looks like you have your work cut out then........post up in the wanted section for replacement bonnet, valence's, wheels, interior..... :excl:

 

In typical Carisma style.........wayyyy over the top. I appreciate the amount of work thats been put into it. From what I remember the owner of Carisma (Jamie?) worked for Rolls Royce as an upholsterer, if his previous incarnations are anything to go by, the workmanship will be spot on.

 

£20k is a huge some of money to spend on a 205! I bet for half that Espen (Shine) would have sold his car to the previous owner. I know how easy it is to get carried away however, having spent £19k on my old MR2 Turbo.

What wheels are they, Technomags?

 

Remember the car from ebay a few months back, the stereo and interior alone make it a bargain, if all else fails they could be sold on!

yeah but the really funny thing is the wiring....

 

i an trying to sort it out now but they have destroyed some of the wiring and they are bits you need like indicator... hazard

heater blower... side lights and other good bits

 

i have sorted all bits for mot but it is hard work

 

oh and even funnyer every wire they put in is 1 colour which is bad if it ever goes wrong

i saw this when jimbean had this the first time, it is rather over the top, but the interior was well made and alot of work had gone into it. must add alot of weight to the body thou.

I like the fact that this car will be finished and will be a variation on a theme. You can tell that parts of this car have been done nicely and not just a collection of bolt ons and silly things like front bumpers smoothed into the wings which will crack over time. The rear spoiler would benefit from replacing with a neater and smaller one for a more euro look.

 

It is not really my taste but the sort of thing I like to see out and about as it reminds me of the early days of Max Power, or the Pre-Chav years!

 

Not so keen on the red bits, as I think they would have looked a load better if it was tan and blue, but for a grand it is a steal.

 

Are they 306 Cabrio rear lights? Hopefully they are something Peugeot!

 

Thanks for having the balls to post this up here where you know the vast majority will slate it :wub:

the lights!! what a pain the are in fact a jap part think honda civic.... they are two piece and are a good 50cm or so half of it fits in the tailgate

 

the fit is not great but it will tidy up at bodyshop

 

and not at all to my taste too and i put the engine in a good 3 years ago

 

it was quite funny as the new owner found me to help finish it.... i thought i got rid of it a long time ago...

 

as for posting it i had no problem.... this is my hobby and love it ... if it be conversions....engine rebuilds... motorspor prep...wiring...even slightly takin the piss out of strange chavish cars its all good and keeps me learning and out of my wifes way
