Certain cars not mean't to be MAX'd.....?

[Ministry]

It has happened, sadly, at last...MAX showed the Nova crew what a real car is...

...but why anybody would want to change this truly beautiful car into a total monster is beyond me. Nitrous...of course it's not quick enough.. I do believe that certain cars should not be mod'ed. Is it that the designers have missed something? Do people who mod cars really take into account changes to the aerodynamics?

What are the most outrageous mods you lot have seen on cars that should really have been left untouched?

Ministry - we've been over this old chesnut mate.... do a search on a post like "Max Power'd Cerbera"... got quite heated!

It'd be intesting to see how this car performs against a standard cerbera. I bet over a twisty bumpy road a standard car would p*ss all over it. 20" wheels and rock hard suspension would ruin the ride. You can't use the power if the wheels aren't in contact with the tarmac!

I had (a long time ago) a 16v golf gti Mk3 that i put 17" wheels and a lower/stiffer suspension kit on. On billiard table smooth tarmac it was great round corners, but on REAL roads it was much worse than the standard car had been. Still you learn from your mistakes

hmmmm, You have to admit that the car has a rather sly grin though

Apologies Podie...did have a look as couldn't believe no one had covered it...but didn't find anything, must be something to do with this horrible Friday morning headache

This is the first time I've seen pictures of the car and my opinion is I don't like what's been done to it, the original cars fine just as it is.

I regularly lust after cerb's whenever I see them and dream of owning one when I grow up. (I'm only 4)
In my opinion the chap's gone too far, and he was in the local rag yesterday, seems he's from just down the road, never seen the car though.

Ministry - absolutely no need to apologise mate, no issue to me! I was just trying to let you know that it had been talked about. It was a big thread.. but *ahem* can't locate it now...!
