Don't forget they can't modify engines in most of europe, if you don't like the style at least appricaite the quality.
hhhmmmm...................................Nah looks like a pile of *****! lol

I've seen many cars that look good from a distance, you need to see a car up close to judge the quality. In my opinion no matter how good the work, its a waste of time because it looks rubbish, that is why I could never appropriate it,or the work which has gone into it.

Its about personal opinions, not context. My Mum lives in Spain, so I've spent a far bit of time there not seem many like this!

I've seen pictures of it close up and I think it's good.

When I say "normal" Spain I mean not the areas that tourists and expats go to.

Didn't know you knew where my Mum lives! She lives in a very Spanish town, and has no English friend in Spain. She is no typical expat, thank you.

Nice stereotype though.

Anyway each to there own, I hate the first version of the car, and love the second.

Hate/Love there my word(s) as per the original topic.
