Very impressive, Max Power is complete pants and now there are going to be a few chavs wantin DC5s...if they can afford them.

Its not all bad: http://www.motorpix.com/2008/London_Int ... how/74.htm :wink:

It is ok but not that good in the flesh.

The front wheel does not sit on the middle of the arch because it has got the BTCC body kit and the BTCC cars had adjustable wheel base depending on the track they were on.

Way too heavy too.

It was originally built by Carisma for Castrol as a promo car and as Chris states the front wheels look cack as they are wwwaaayyy off in the arch, sadly it is a bit of a bucket really

Si, youve never liked them though have you :wink:

I remember when it first came across and Carisma where building it at shows, they must have done alot of work to make it road legal/pass sva considering.

I still cant believe that people are getting upset over potential 'chavs' are driving around in our holy dc5's, wake up people, as people are selling theres at desperately low prices and its not as if there £6 figure/limited production cars.

I remember when i first saw an RSX in MP back in '02, got me interested in them then.

 

[Chris-DC5]

There is one easy way to stop chavs getting hold of these, DONT sell your DC5. They cant afford them from importers so if we dont sell they dont get.

Simple

 

[linzi94]

i didnt realise Carisma were still going.

although it has to be said of chav mobiles in general, i dont see as many out and about as i used to say, 2-3 years ago.

im not totally adverse to bodykits and big wheels, just some are deffinately handled with more taste than others.

this red teg falls into the latter :lol: i dont like it.

 

[Hoodster]

I can't see the 5 becoming a chav car it will end up the same as the 2 sure some chavs will get there hands on one but most will be driven by genuine car lovers.
And I don't know if you know this but not all chavs are poor there are plenty of chavs with money it usually makes them twice as annoying as the skint ones.
Anyone who would want there 5 to look like this red one must be mentally disturbed.

 

[benny]

its worth buyin the mag to see the interior done in red and white leather, there is a bonus of an r35 in it too! but even thats been chaved! haha

 

[to-fu]

at least you dont own a gtr.. princess-chav kerry katona just bought one of them! :lol:

 

[kingston]
