clevo, what can I say, that is very cool. but im not sure if it beats my Nissan micra custom van conversion, ive always liked vans and the cost of em is pretty steep in the uk, I also wanted an automatic and a small engine, so I made this, I love it, puts a smile on my face every time I drive it, I just had the rear window vinyl done today, 65 to the gallon and singing all the way, got an isr and iracing bumber stickers but don't want to attract too much heat in this little hot hatch

 

 

Pat where's the Royal Mail emblem?

I may not a have my driver's liscene just yet but I am driving something just as fast. This is my KZ2 kart, 125cc water cooled, 6 speed sequential shifter, soft tyres and front and rear brakes. Makes for one hell of a workout and a ride like no other 1016288_1397274123818359_913804430_n.jpg

I have an 02 WRX that's in the process of being rally prepped. Just need a cage, brush guard with lights, and 15s with gravel tires and I'm done! I'm already like 5k in with engine mods and suspension. Mine is on the left, fellow subie enthusiast BRZ on the right. This is an older pic though, now she has some rally armor mud flaps and a few other goodies.

Driving it around town one day some jackass thought that running a stop sign while making a left turn was a great idea and t-boned me.

 

Car was not totaled, no frame damage, but the "dream" was gone and decided to get rid of it as after 3mos in a shop for repairs every time I looked at it I was reminded of what could have been, etc and it just made me angry.

Here's my current car.

I bought this new in 2012, it was a new model from Chevy called the "Orlando" now's the funny part, it's only available in Canada even though it has the name of a popular USA city? or a old singer Tony Orlando?

It's part station wagon, part SUV, is FWD only and has a Chevy 2.4 liter ecotech engine with direct injection. I bought this for the interior room and the easy access to all that space. It has a much more comfortable ride than my previous Chevy Cobalt and is actually quite peppy and handles very well considering what it is.

After the test drive, the salesman asked me...... "is there anything about the vehicle you don't like"...... My reply was...... "Yeah, the faggoty name!" LOL

To this day, I still hate the name they gave this vehicle, why couldn't they call it something decent like "Whatcamacallit, or Whatsit, or Thingamabobber" this would have described this vehicle a lot better! LOL.

The picture was taken the day I got it, just before I drove it off the lot, it's so clean and pretty! LOL

Take care

@CaTaPulT it's named after a singer, a popular city and after Legolas AKA Orlando Bloom. You have a pretty nice car in the form of names...

Fixed.

 

My car is the 2000 Infiniti G20t, Nissan Primera P11 for all those people who drive on the wrong side of the road ;)

Maybe a lil' work needs be done still?

 

It's got a ways to go, but now that it's finally home I can start getting it in order a bit at a time. I actually plan to take it backwards a few steps first tho and get it prepared for paint.
