not a bad idea, but Chavs all buy M&P at the moment
But they do spend a lot of the pram, as its the thing that is seen, so they are a good target customer to make lots of cash from

You need a Chav advertising campaign.
Also a couple of Chav models, like a wallet for them to put their dole card in, a compartment they can store their fags.
Maybe a collaboration with Adidas for a sporty model.

thanks for the good comments
I had enough daylight time yesterday afternoon to get my seat covers on- they look amazing as the black neoprene exactly matches the black roof.
They are wetokole, from Hawaii, and are essentially wet-suit material sewn to be seat covers. The rear bottom seat was the toughest (re-fitting it after the cover was on) but I finally got it.
Also got my armrest installed, and the parcel shelf. Didnt switch the wheels yet, I'm surprised at how much I like the oem ones on this car...

the first part's rather easy, but I expect shipping costs will be a biotch
plus the postman doesn't look that strong to me...

try getting a pram in with that stupid bar in the back of the GP
A car with a bar in the back saves you having to go to the pub

I'm still wondering about the GP........
Basically it boils down to :
Order a GP ?
or
Get the Works Brakes, and maybe some CF on my current car, (just to revive interest in it) which has pretty much everything on it already , spec-wise, and hold it till at least mid 07, more likely January 08 so I can get a new shape Works Turbo?
What do you lot think?

It also stops you getting a pram in the back.

Me too :
Silver Mirrors, body colour arches and upgrade the HU/Amp and speakers in the front, maybe a Milltek if the
JCW zorst is not quite right.
Maybe as well some extra lamps in the tweeters on the front somehow.
