    Hmm, it seems your definition of lovely and mine are very different. Looks like a pile-o-pants chavmobile to me.

    Has the front end got the Super VR4 spoiler add-ons added to it?

    Looks like the 'Batmobile' from an Eminem song!

    Eeewwwwww! While the crux front isnt my favourite to begin with (why would you have roundy fish-lines on a VR4???) The fact that theyv butchered the stock grille and jammed it in there is an abomination... and its a 1.8

    You can see why i like to call it the trout mouth body kit.. its a shame, because the rest of the kit is quite nice, iv actually got the legnum rear in the garage at the moment.

    I like the crux front. But I don't like a badly trimmed stock grille in it!

    AFAIK those alloys were only ever put on UK supplied cars, which that 1.8 is most definitely not! The seat covers are a bit loud too....

    Does the badge at the back read VR-G?

    Yep - The spec of the VR-G was roughly the same as the pre-facelift UK V6-24.

    I won't comment on the Crux bumpers....

    Each to their own, I'm not particularly a fan of the bodge job front end.

    This eBay car is almost on par with that red & white striped facelift Galant saloon on AutoTrader...

    It was discussed recently on another thread here - though I know it's been reduced to a mere £255!!!!

    the VR-G is a fairly well specced model, but with the terrible 1.8 gutless engine and a 4 speed auto.

    That bumper is horrid, I don't know why anyone would put it onto their car. The sideskirts that go with the rest of the kit are quite nice though.

    These kind of smilie-like front bumpers take away the standard though/angry looks. Horrible IMO.

    I swear that there is a Legnum in the background of one of his pictures.

    What do you think? I'd say it could even be a COTY model:

    And is that a black Galant saloon just over that hedge?!

    It's got the same curves!

    definitely a legnum in the background, doubt that other car is another galant.

    I'm thinking the Galant is a possibility - the rear quarter window looks the same, but is it actually the roofline of something like a Ford Mundano?
