Nope, but you are close. Its a VW but a Polo instead with some Golf bits attached to it... And LSD style doors.
Confusing isn't it...

Anu, that was a special kind

Submitted by Edwin on Thu, 2007-06-14 21:30.

Anu,
that was a special kind of paint and a very expensive one ( about 1000Euro per litre if i remember correctly ). The fun part of this paint is that you see a different color depending from where you look at it and from where the light comes...

Anyone a guess what kind of car that one was originally
( i mean if you take the wide body kit away and put the original hood back on )??

Got a few hundred pics like that from my tog past. Some i can show and some not as they got bought by a magazine.

Anu, this picture was taken

Anu,
this picture was taken on the International Tuning Show 2004 in Mechelen Belgium and the car was an entry from the UK. Note that the hood opens from the centre outwards. Another nice trick.
