What do you call the type of styling where the car has rusted or battered bits on it, usually on eurostyle cars?

Any pics?

VW Beetles, Camper vans and such.

Modified cars are now latching onto it as being cool, but its been done for years and years...

Give it a few years and you won't need to "try" to make a corsa a rusted look, it'll do it itself.

It only works if the car is a Beetle/Bus/30s American car, and is REALLY fast.

Looks utterly wank on eveything else, ever.

Can you not just park it on the road? Or don't you want to do that? Seems a shame to sell it!
