According to Wikipedia (whether you believe it or not?)

Ford Fiesta xr2 mk1
Mazda RX-7
Chevrolet Camaro
1967 Amphicar
1996 Porsche 993 Targa

I do love wheeler dealers (I've even got all the dvds)  but having recently got into Fast n Loud it seems a bit tame now!  :grin:

Fast n loud is great! Never really been a US car man, but now really want an old small truck in rust with a clear coat and a ruddy great V8  :evilgrin:

I love watching the GMG boys, proper good programme. Seems like EVERY SINGLE CAR gets AirRide, 20" Crome wheels, a V8 and then they sell it. Brilliant stuff and way better than Mike and Ed!  :happy2:

Well, they destroyed that rx7. All it needed was some bigger brakes, coil overs, spacers and a good detail. Agree with the engine work though.

Poor car.

Always remember the episode where they chavved up a perfectly standard WRX and sold it on to some silly sod, couldn't watch it after that haha...

Watched that one too. I know they're doing it wrong when I feel embarrassed for them even though I'm sitting in my living room. :/

Rx7 snake skin edition?! What were they thinking?! :sad1:

I've always thought I would like an rx7 if only there was an orange snake skin edition!

Yet more evidence to justify what car designers earn....

what was the script with the xr2, there's no way that was a 2k car to start off with a tad cheap, mint alloys and sills but a dodgy interior and bumper :wink:

The RX7 was a beautiful car (except for the Mazdasport front end).  And then... yeuch.

Mind you, they sold it back to the original owner.  So who's the mug?

I still can't get over them spending £3k on the Porsche suspension. Fully adjustable everything, impressive but why?! I highly doubt it'll ever see a track where it can be taken advantage of. Other than that and the god awful RX-7, not a bad series so far!
