    Not taking a car with a motor swap, sorry too many possible issues down the road.
    Even if its from a DUB Addict I would rather build it they way "I" want it.

    Thing... Just because they are sweet!

    And the R53, because who doesn't need a parts car...

    I'll take the Thing & repaint it.

    I'll take the GTI & put a cage in it. I too have already owned an R53 & that scratch has been itched.

    Dead heat between the Beatle and the Thing. I love Things and always wanted one. So Thing wins 7 to 6
    The MINI smacked the GTi 7 to 3. We are on a MINI board after all. There was 1 vote from a non GTi owner :frown2:

    Next set are some oddities

    German engineering or Italian style

    The best air cooled VW ever made or the first Japanese luxury sports car

    I am glad the Thing won it was a toss up for me.
    Ok it was me I voted for the GTI! Happy? I admit it!
    I only did it because I have a R53 I don't need two.
    Its Chucks fault! :biggrin5:

    I'll take the Alfa even though it needs to be painted red.

    914 because the 280 ZX is a failure.

    I twisted Lee's arm until he said GTI. :p
