Was in Mudgee today and seen a tidy real old school Honda Civic with mags and an older generation woman driving it. On the back window was a big sticker saying "FULLY SIVIC" and yes it was spelt with an S. I had a good laugh anyway. Must be either sticking it to all the ricers around or have no idea.

Driver reaction WIN!

Dunno about Car Fail... but I've just managed 2 weeks of driving around with no brake lights! (Switch kaput) considering I only use the car in daylight hours for work I honestly didn't notice... nearly ploughing into the backs of cars is fairly standard for Perth drivers anyway.

A fair while ago i seen a very wierd Ford Focus, it was (what looked like) a convertible but it didn't have the normal folding roof, the roof was more like a coupe but had a seam between the roof and boot as a convertible would.
Very hard to explain, and also a EPIC FAIL!

In Focus · 26-06-2011, 09:15 PM

Not sure I see the fail - ok - they're not that pretty with the roof up...

But designed by Pinifarina - they look sexy with the top down...

Ok i wont say his nationality, but saw on weekend an old red toyota corolla sedan.... rear left smashed in with bumper rubbing on tyre.
The real fail was the homemade timber roof rack( which was as long as the car).... which sat on two box steel sections , which was bolted through the roof of the car!

Reminds me of that Bush Mechanics show - a group of aboriginal musicians in an old ZF/ZG Fairlane put all their gear on the roof - it caved in, so they cut it off and tied it to the back of the car!

I want one. Full stop. I mean, I love my old Celica, but if I were to trade it for anything, it'd be that. I can imagine people laughing a the little car with the body kit...until you blew them away.
