Nice chav rides everyone.. ;) I love Al-famous's the most, LOL.

I love Al-famous's the most, LOL.No way dude, you have no taste, my Nova pwns :p :D

[dPratt]

What makes the first car from AL-FAMOUS even more disturbing is that it is apprently not in the UK. Here's another shot of the same car (http://www.chavscum.co.uk/4images/details.php?image_id=2372). Notice the North American style plate on SUV in the background (as if the SUV itself wasn't a hint). I certainly hope chavs aren't spreading :rolleyes:

This mod is among the finest I have ever seen. Sadly, the rest of the car just doesn't live up...

[edesignuk]

This mod is among the finest I have ever seen. Sadly, the rest of the car just doesn't live up...Not that long ago I saw a Saxo with 8 (yes, 8!!!) exhausts (must have been like 3" each) all lined up across the back of it. Funniest thing I've ever seen.

[EJBasile]

2003 Range Rover 4.4 HSE
2001 Range Rover 4.6 HSE
2004 Mercedes E-320 CDi

Sorry I don't have any old bombs :(

When the 2005 Range Rovers come out I'm buying one. I think I'm not going to get the Sport edition and get either the 300hp RR or 390hp supercharged engine replacing my 2003 Range Rover.

In 2006 I think I'll replace my E-320 with the new BMW 3-Series coming out.

Up until about 3 months ago I had a 2002 BMW M3, but I sold it and bought a 2004 Dodge Stratus for a baby mover.

Don't worry when you have your midlife crisis you can get a sporty car lol.

[katie ta achoo]

behold the mightiest of rides: (some pink bike)

Does that thing come in a size that an adult woman could ride? I LOVE THAT BIKE!
Oh man, I can soo see myself rolling down the street on that sweet ride.
My current bike I just took from my brother.

no sweet ride for KT. (see attached pic)

It doesn't have brakes... I should bike to the store (carefully) and get some...

edit: I can't spell

[fitinferno]

I too have a bike as my ride. Nothing like avoiding the congestion fee with a small deathtrap...

[Phat_Pat]

I'm a Part time bus driver

http://home.woh.rr.com/drimages/2003/ghetto-bus.jpg

[dhracer88]

I don't drive legally....yet. I do ride my mountain bikes often, sometimes too hard, resulting in multiple broken parts. The Surly's awaiting a new Marzocchi Dirt Jumper III, lx derailleur (I go through three derailleurs per year, why not buy cheap?), truvativ hussefelt cranks & bottom bracket, and probably a new handlebar. The Banshee needs a new x.7 derailleur, plus the fork has to be rebuilt (easy, 5 foot drop...to flat broke it). I need to bleed the brakes someday as well...If I only I were sponsored I wouldn't have to keep shelling out $$$$ every few months for repairs. Here they are in all their pre-crash glory:

:eek::eek: awesome car!

dont have a car yet but i dream of a chili red mini cooper...

[mkrishnan]

I don't have a picture of it, sadly, because I couldn't move fast enough with my cam phone before it drove away, but in Detroit, I saw a late 80s or early 90s Chevy Cavalier with an M3 badge glued on in place of the cavalier one in the back on the boot. LOL that made my day. :)

[dhracer88]

That's how I would ride my Monkey Bike (see pics couple posts up). Damn that thing was fun to burn out in. The tires are solid rubber, and it is a single speed, so out of curiousity, I tested tire polish. Spray some on cement and coat the back tires and you'll peel out :D :D :D . Spray the front and you'll crash...

I haven't read the whole thread, just seen pics of stupid stuff.
So nobody here has a nice car/bike/whatever they want to show?

I remember a while ago some guy posted in the Community Discussion forum that he'd just bought an MV Agusta... Wheres' that guy?

i've since added some black fenders, a rack and an ugly yellow milk crate.

Well, cr2sh's pic of the TSX on the first page was actually his car, I think. Mine is a white Mazda6 sedan...it looks pretty much like you'd expect a white Mazda6 sedan to look. No tricking out. I think that's why no one's bothering to post for you.... apparently there is a sore lacking of rice rocket representation up in here.

I know, FWIW, that others have posted their cars (also usually pretty stock) in other threads. I've seen several VWs, and I think edesign has posted his car before too.

Fair enough...at least they put out the lttl r/c ones...if you get one like that no one will key it...or they'd have to at least find a really small key...lol.

Verry nice!

I almost got a 2002 330ci back when they were new, but I decided to keep my Passat. I am happy with my decision so far, but Barvaria is still calling my name from time to time!

It's a culmination of a dream. The Passat is a fine car, and that's nothing to look over the fence at Bavaria too terribly hard.

Indeed, sadly you have the last of the great E46 series BMWs!

I have suplimented my dream (for now) by doing some minor mods to get my Passat near thepower of the 2002 Model year 330ci I wanted. It is now sitting at ~220hp (245 lb/ft torque).

Sadly It is still only FWD, But I am really happy with the multilink front suspension on these cars.

I really don't care for the new E90 BMW 3 Series at this point, so I hope when I am in the market, BMW has something that I will like, and or the E90 will just have to grow on me. The possibility of a 1 or (which I think they would call a 2 series in the US) series in "M" trim would be high on my list!

[edesignuk]

Your dream is my sweet ride baby!Technically not, that's a Cooper S :p Mine (http://homepage.mac.com/edesignuk/PhotoAlbum11.html) is a Chili Red Cooper :D Would love it to be an S one day though :cool: I thought about the Union Jack, but couldn't quite bring myself to do it, maybe this summer...

Could you get one of your 'tars painted across the top? That'd be gorgeous.





Okay, I'll stop now before this turns into a creepy eKierauk-fest.

[_pb_boi]

This is my mums car, my dads pride and joy, and my baby at evenings and weekends ;) I have it for school a good bit too, although school ended for me on Friday.. forever :o

It's a 318ESi with the older style M alloys (dirty there, I know. This car is usually pristine, but eh! Just took the picture there now). It's got full M suspension too, and the M interior. It's not a CSL just yet, though ;)

patrick, owning a beema was my dads dream since he was a kid and used to wash his neighbours! Owning an Evo 8 FQ330 is my dream, now, but I'd be happy with a 330 ;)

Anyways, yep. Oh yeh, 43,000 miles on the clock and it's just over a year and a half old. Goes through tyres like nobodies business.

We'll never find out but I always wonder how many people in these "show your ride" threads are lying big time.

As for me I have a wonderful bicycle for now. Seeing as I live in a city where you can get somewhere twice as fast peddling as driving, there really isn't any point for me to get a car just yet. Although I would love to have one! :D

I'm too old to lie about having a pink and blue bike with a basket on it. As for having two cars...that is true. They're not extravagant cars, honda and mustang....but they both have my name on 'em.

Most of my money goes towards rent...I live in orange county cali--that should explain it. :)

Generic photo but it looks exactly the same. A little Infiniti G20t, small but handles incredibly well. In a year from now it will be considerably faster, with very subtle styling changes. More than likely there will only be three outward signs of anything having been done. The rims have to go because they are only 15" and the wheel wells are too big for them. Besides that, I'll need more grip eventually. The good thing is, it should still get 30mpg or better when everything is done.
