That's probably for his 'Custom Supercharger', or as
he put it, 'Electric Fan with switch inside of car'.   ;D

As if it weren't bad enough to make a complete abortion of a job of modding a car. So many people do that it's almost excusable. No, on top of that, he decides to start out with a Metro FFS!  :o

Why would you?
According to the listing twelve people have bid on it, that means that there are thirteen persons who thought it was worth a punt. Now that is really worrying.
I tell you they live amongst us   :o

It honestly looks like they've Tippexed the bumpers and arches, glued a 30L kitchen bin onto the bonnet, painted it in a rather fetching shade of matt black, painted the standard wheels red (whilst painting the tyre lettering in white :-[ Goodyear GT65's) and let the fluid out of the hydrolastic suspension.

Total cost, well the Tippex must have set them back a fiver at least, those bins are on special in Asda for a tenner, matt black and red paint is a fiver. £20 all in I reckon!!!!!

Anyone got any idea why the bin has been mounted directly in the drivers field of vision :-?, is it because he doesn't want the person in front to see what he looks like ;D

I think I'd rather have that blue Omega thats been doing the rounds on Ebay, P/Heads etc.

Note the gumball rally sticker on the bonnet.

I guess the cat carrier glued to the bonnet is for comedy value-I love the idea of the electric fan "supercharger" too.

And they say the drugs don't work....
