Meeting Monday
Unknown meeting but definitely worth watching!
Exhaust of the week: GX71 children accounted for
This Mark II takes children into account:
A nicely done kaido racer with a tricycle on its lip!
The exhaust pipes are four crazy pipes sticking out of the rear: (more…)

The 430 is a great platform: you can basically can’t do anything wrong and it will always work out fine. Just take a look at this roofchopped Gloria 430:

Car feature: Sharknose Mira taxi
The Dunlop theme on this sharknosed Daihatsu Mira L200 was applied after the owner saw a picture of it in a magazine.

Back in the late 80s AMG was one of the baddest tuners around: with their bulky lowered Mercs they really showed how tuning is supposed to be done. Naturally another tuner of that era called Koenig made even more outrageous designs including the Koenig Testarossa which looked a bit more out of space than Doc’s Delorean time machine.
So naturally people stared copying the AMG and Koenig designs, including this beautiful Cedric 430:
Not only does it feature an enormous sharknose and lip, it also includes the typically Koenig side air intakes!
Seen from the rear it becomes apparent how ridiculously wide those rear fenders are! (more…)
