I think it works with the Astra, because that carries the look over the whole car. The Corsa looks like it's had lots of money spent on it, which makes the bonnet look out of place.

Mines not Rat look. Just has a bonnet thats inspired from that scene. Nova_gteuk got it right
Anyway, thats all i'll say on the subject, i'll let you guys argue about it.
Oh and Brett, sorry for being a bore!

the bonnet is a unique different touch, and sums up jimmy's car in a nutshell. The car has loads of influences from different styles etc mixed together. so yes its not full "rat" but as influences of this. I get it, due to its uniqueness but i suppose those who dont "think outside the box" differ
Both other cars are fresh and a nice change to see.
Nice lil feature there tho.  Good write up too. o n i got mentioned in the thanks section. woah

at the end of the day the 3 cars on the cover are all there own.just because they havent got speedlines and a gsi kit doesnt mean there not cool.agree with most people when they say they shouldnt have the rook racks permenent but if they want to then let them.
think about it,name 1 corsa with speedlines and gsi kits that has had around 6 features this year like jimmys?
thought so!

I can't believe it annoys people It's the cover of a magazine FFS, if you don't like it, don't buy it.
I say well done to the 3 of them for getting a feature, let alone the cover of a national mag.

imo none of them are rat look. the bonnets arent rat look, they're just bonnets made rusty, proper rat look vans dont look like that. you're all nuts.

jimmy don't fall out with me or i'll abuse you next time i see you
well, your bonnet just looks like you've sanded all the paint off and let it go rusty. whereas any old skool rat look vw i've ever seen are naturally weathered paint and rusty bits. it just looks too fake for me.

Martin, we fell out when you sold me those shit wheels! (joke)
Yes your right about my bonnet, cos thats what i did. But i'll say it again, its inspired from that scene. Ie, the rust pattern, texture and colour. I never said it was rat look. Fast Car approached me about featuring it within this special addition mag. I wasn't going to say no was i?
