Modern Fibreglass still rubbish

Postby phildini » Tue Oct 30, 2012 5:07 pm

We always complain about our Alpine having fibreglass defects, but even today modern fibreglass cars seem to have the same problems.

Took this in part ex today, bloody horrible trying to get in and out, reminded me of Dells A110 :lol:

Must have had a poor repair as Lotus glass is pretty good these days.
