nice aren't they. I had one last year, but the engine blew up and at the time I was moving down south, so I had to get rid. I was gutted.

maybe, maybe not. I tracked down a guy who said that he owned the MR2 Spyder, but he didn't want to sell, so I am now looking at some other options aswell, but an MR2 Turbo is still high on the list, it's just another 4 seater convertible has come into the picture now.

lmfao!! not quite, it is slightly better than that and not a girls car either!! :lol:

Has anyone else noticed that when you stand slightly to the sideof a street ka, they look like the body has twisted and isn't on straight. It's some kind of wierd optical illusion.

To me the StreetKa looks like a female version of the Uber-cool VW Beetle Wizard roadster - Love those cars and I'd build one if I ever get the chance/money/time.

I used to want a VW Beetle Wizard Roadster, I had a bright orange beetle years ago and wanted to chop it up and make one, but didn't have the skills/time/money or patience!!!!

I would be tempted now, but it would have to have a scooby engine or a porsche engine in and be a whole lot more reliable than a normal beetle!!!

I had a bright purple Early '67 1600 Beetle 'Cal' style.
It was uber low (Loads of negative camber on the back), Half W decklid, popes nose plate light, early US all red rear lights, stand off hinges, chrome 'blade' bumpers (Really wanted some US towel rail ones), colour coded Empi 5 spokes with polished rims and 3 spoke spinners and a freaky retrim inside!!
T'was indeed a cool car!!!

sounds wicked mate. I still goto the VW northwest event at tatton park. I think I will always have an urge to buy another beetle, but it would have to be as a second car.
