Well go and look at the quality of the featured cars, now look at yours with its cracked bumper, and effectivly lowered, alloys, and bodykit, and now ask if you REALLY deserve a feature.
Get the crasks sorted
Engine sorted
interior sorted
audio sorted
paintwork sorted
then ask again. All yours is, is another corsa with another same old bodykit, on same old wheels. It needs a VAST amount more. and the fact your asking without even looking brings me back toi my original comment.

i am assuming you havent had the miss fortune of looking through a car mag lately vxr? The more scene and rat shit the more likely to get a feature. Fuck it up more than fix it up.

Nope not got a copy in ages tbh.
I did hear recently from an editor of another car mag that a certain ex Redline editor got the sack though! That suprised me. Im so out the cool loop
last time I picked up a car mag, it just wasnt' the same. Some civic, standard, decked with wheels 10" outside the arches and an over-sized exhaust.
I put it back down. What happened to a complete car to get a feature. Wheels, brakes, engine, styling, paint, audio, interior etc?

Times change VXR. That's what happened. Having said that, more 'out there' cars are being built now. Just look for Elmo's Civic.

Imo a lot of cars do have 'everything' but its just more subtle.

Who wants subtle on a modified car.
Big brash and mad, thats what being uniques all about isn't it? Mad paints, cool wheels, funky interiors.
These kids these days, just haven't got a clue.
back in the day, when I was a lad, many moons ago, when ferrets run on wheels to turn your tyres.......

Less is more and all that? Body kits aren't in these days if you hadn't noticed? Lot's of show/mag cars have shed loads more done to them than meets the eye
