Decided to vent here about other people's lack of taste, i mean ok, nova modding is one thing and could be put down to some penal deficiency but what i have witnessed this week is beyond mere willy extensions:

1. a renault clio tarted up to the ground in white with bodykit, spoiler, gold alloys.......ok bog standard you may think for the average ****. But they go one further......... first off this car has a tiny ground clearance, the fact the owner lives in Scrub lane (for those of you not familiar with hadleigh, this road is littered with speed bumps) and the owner has dozens of scratch marks up the back from his bling bling chrome tip bouncing off the road. Now ok, still very basic, but now we get to the cream....

the sound system. I thought CD's were the current form of media, but no, this car has 2 bloody record decks in the back seat! complete with mixer! and the :tosser: who drives it feels free to sodden my ears with his awful taste in music along with his mate in the back shouting over a microphone (i believe the term is MC'ing? master of ****'s? masturbating ****?). Outside ****ing speakers too, no chance of escape from someone who should have been drowned at birth then shot just to make sure. It's not even a williams, it's a bog standard 97 reg, the world's polishing a turd spring to mind

2. Carnoissour, anyone familiar with this alloy chain? well the office in Chalkwell obviously has the pick of the bunch when it comes to hiring. I went in to purchase some 17" Superleggera's for a customer only to be greeted with 2 gormless muppets. On arrival outside i saw 2 cars 'show cars' one lime green escort with enough plastic to make Jordan jealous and i suspect the owner was keeping chickens in the bonnet as obviously the wire was a dead giveaway, and a MODDED smart car! yes folks, a purple/green (2 tone) smart car, not brabus, a bog standard smart car! ignoring these minor attrocities to motoring i went in:

"hi, i'll have 5 17" superleggeras"
*blank stare* from employees (for imagination help, go to Mcdonals and ask for a Burger without putting Mc before it.......see the blank stare you're getting? the obvious sign that the lights are on but whoever was inside that head has buggered off down the pub? *THAT'S THE LOOK!*)
"........OZ racing?"
"ah, nah, we ain't got any in stock, can order some in"
"no, sorry need them today"
"we got some Fox racing reps, look rite like em"
"erm...do they weigh the same?"
"erm...dunno"
*cue muppet number 2*
"what you want OZ for anyway"
"well, wheels.....i want a set of alloys wheels from OZ racing, it's not like i want a blowjob from them is it?"
"nah, i mean why OZ? fox and BBS are much better, i got some"
"really, what car?"
"fiesta sport"
"...............right, well when i want to hand my customer a shiny piece of ****, charge him hundreds for it, and watch him get laughed out of the Porsche cup and lose any chance i have of getting more work from those guys, plus any self respect i have for myself, i'll come look for you.....until then *walks out door*"

what is wrong with these people! did someone take a piss in the gene pool?

Dude, I've been thinking just the same lately. Or actually for the last 10 years or so, but just lately it's been a little.. different..

Because it looks like that the American Style Riceboy Tuning has landed in my small(ish) home town of Oulu (about 120,000 inhabitants). So far the snotnoses have been just "tuning" their 20+ years old P.O.S corollas, escorts and Opel Kadetts (which I guess is the same as Vauxhall Nova?) with "shelby stripes", window tints, installing Mangels 13" chrome wheels and cutting the springs to lower them. But now there's actually a couple of new(ish) Civics and Vectras being raped with aluminum wings and body kits of any sort. The worst overkill is an "owned by my mom" Honda Civic 1.4LSI with a huge aluminum wing and side skirts and stuff, and it's even still got the 1.4LSI plate on the back. :D I guess mommy wouldn't let him remove it... Or then again, maybe he just lacks the skill to. :D

The thing hardest to understand about these "tunings" of the new(ish) cars is, that those guys all seem to have paid a visit to the local cheapo-store, which sells window stickers with the text "RACING SPORT" on them, fake air vents and stuff like that. I mean, WTF?? Racing Sport? Vectra 1.6? Don't these guys know any english or don't they just care? The stickers really appear to be straight off the "engrish"-page.

Another thing is, that since the car taxation changed here in Finland so, that importing a car is only insanely expensive (used to be impossibly expensive, like 5 times the price of the car for import tax...), they seem to be bringing all the old Opel Calibras and Toyota Celica 1.6's here. And none of them turbo 4WD, most of the Celicas (about 10 of them brought to my town within half a year) actually seem to be 1.6's, since they don't have disc brakes in the back. Naturally the proud owners have made every effort to tear the badges off the back... And the 2.0i 8v Calibra owners really seem to think it's a sports car. Sure, it looks nice from the outside, but from the inside it's a shitty old Vectra, it's FWD with 120bhp or something. Aww come on people...

Alltogether, such stupidity really gets on my tits. I know I should be openminded and let all people be like they want to be but I just CAN'T UNDERSTAND what's moving inside these guys' heads when they do such things and thus, it's hard for me to tolerate...
