Strange looking alloy wheels - look more like black painted steels.

What do you get with 19 inch alloys? One turn lock to lock and the turning circle of a supertanker? Obviously a project for an experienced wheel bearing changer!

Oh dear:shock:..... "...paid over £2,000 for the body kit":D:D:D.    As I've said before, I like to see a FEW tasteful accessories on a car...... 

Sellers user name sums it up perhaps?

I like the nicely colour coordinated lime green dash best.
We always used to say the lifting bridge over to Sheppey was up most the time to keep the locals on there ....

I have to say that I'm not a fan of shorties.

However, credit where credit is due, this looks to be extremely well done. So often they are half baked but this one is really good. Well done to the creator :cool:

Shouldn't it really be a Studio 1 though :P

As for a power plant, would an R1 engine fit in a shorty :?
