the vaillante concept lives!...sorta..

was down my dealers again today predictably to order some new interior parts (oh starting this was a baaaaaaad idea!) and happened upon a rather wierd car on the forecourt:

the rear bumper was a normal facelift, but it had tasty sideskirts and this bumper on, which is almost the same as:

do we not agree?

spoke to the guy in the parts department who had no idea what it was, just said it arrived on transporter this morning, what do we think, do we like it or not, and what the hell kind of special edition is it??

Looking at the original images I thought it looked OK.

But now I see it on a car, absolutely dreadful!

i believe this is the ibiza sports kit you can buy it from them for the whole kit it's £600 i think so don't qoute me on that but i do like it.

Looks crap on that colour of car and with those alloys. Wheels need to be pushed out to the arches further and lowered for the agressive stance of that bumper to blend in.

 

[Ad Lav]

Seat near me have a black one, looks ok, not great though!

 

[danmay]

never seen it before, looks pants in silver IMO it just looks like theres a bit of the bumper missing, the back was unchanged though thats what got me!
i don't like it!!

 

[Rosco906]

i like it

reminds me of the cupra bumper on the my leon on forza 2.

the new leon that is

 

[mhill]

i like it, needs different wheels though and as said above pushed out of the arches

any one care to photochop some Cupra rims on there?

I quite like the wheels!

 

[danmay]

i like the skirts i must admit

 

[Rosco906]

I quite like the wheels!

same wheels thats on yout car aint it?

sidekskirts are poo

wonder how much that bumper is then

 

[Clone]

I agree that if it was lowered and had some spacers it would suit the bumper more. I don't dislike it though. I'm feeling the modding bug trying to get me

its this bloody site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love it to death and spend every spare minute on it, but it fills my head with new ideas everytime i come onto it!

 

[evo2345]

[danmay]

[evo2345]

mite pop down and have a nosey

 

[mrcoyote]

I quite like the sideskirts actually.

 

[danmay]

yeah evo i should do, i only saw it through the railings as i was walking back to town, im undecided on it to be honest, i like the skirts thats what drew me to it 1st, gt down and have a nosey!

 

[CupraStoo]

like the bumper, rest of the car doesnt fit though

skirts/wheels dont suit at all!

 

[whittle123]

yep the car is the new special edition version, the same as formula sport and the dab spec edition. they have a red one in the show room in carlisle. it doesn't look right with the front bumper and the side skirts being low and then it has no spoilers or extended bumper at the back! It needs a decent bck bumper with 17'' and spacers then it'll look ok
