gingergman Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 seeing as my daily runner is rather comedy i fort id put some pics up, i know it aint a escort or even a ford, cos ratting one of them would be wrong! its my trusty n rusty skoda, i got it standard, it was red, then painted matt black but the ultimate rat is rust so i fort bugger it, out came the grinder, it took 9 hours to get to bare metal except the door as ive lost paticence, coverd in salt and it rusted over night! anyways theres loads i could say but as it aint a ford i wont, unless anyone wants to know anything lol. im selling her in next couple of weeks as im bored of it and the cab needs my full attention to be reasy for summer!!all coments wanted please !!!!!

chaz Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Poor old Skoda, you could get done for car cruelty mate. This is my daily runner and it's what's supposed to look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Ill admit im a fan of rat but IMHO..that just looks like unclean felcia, Im guessing the barrow on the roof is used for work purposes n isnt just there for looks?.. Maybe given to deteriate it may look better but for now like chaz said..Poor skoda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 its a harsh thing to do too a car true that. thats a fine example of one chaz, mine was nearly that good when i got it, mines a slightly older model tho, shes only got 68k on the clock, and its so reliable, it wont go wrong, i had a even older skoda a few years ago and it never failed me, i dunno why people say there crap! it looks good in the rat scene tho, veedubs always flashing me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 it looked more rat when it was black and had stencels painted on it, not many peope rust more than the bonnet so thats why i done the whole car lol, the barrow is for looks, everyone always has the same suff on there rack so again i wanted something diffrent so a nackerd rusty wheelbarrow to match the car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest s11pyk Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 haha, you should sneak out at night and punch holes in the exhausts on their 1.0 sheds! get complaining about them! its a joke really! what time do they want you to go to work? or should you sign on see how they like supporting you with their taxes when the skoda finally gives up you need to put it on the garden at the front of your house, they'll love that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
