"nice vw"

Very apt.
Absolutely. All it needs is some air cooled wrongness and a copy of Mein Kampf.

It's shit. The opening comment was defensive from the word go.

Give it a proper bonnet, get rid of the woof wack and fix the bumpers and it would be a nice car.

No amount of snazzy pictures can make it look good.

What he said. It's too much of a miss match for me. A retro roof rack with modern wheels and stupidly low profile tyres? As for the bonnet, as said why would you have that when the rest of the paint is totally mint? Each to their own but not my thing at all.

i like it lots.

if i owned it i wouldnt be able to cope with the bonnet though, think it looks shite on everything bar proper rat cars

really like the red one on debadged turbines too.

funny how turbines look loads better on a whole range of bmws than they did on e34 m5s :mad:
cheers,

You have to understand he's 'one of us' - big on the VW scene as a photographer as far as I'm aware, so the rusty bonnet and roof-rack are inspiration from that.

Cosmetic rust is gay x2. I can understand the appeal of genuine patina on some 50 yr old split-screen camper that has lived all it's life in the desert but to stick an obviously prepped bonnet on an otherwise mint car is just stupid IMO.
It's quite nice other than that, looks like a shiny old e28 with bits of motorway barrier front and back...
