stevepeanut Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 Can someone explain exactly what "south london look" is? They seem to be rattling on about it all the time in retro/classic ford magazines. I have picked up some idea, is it staying with 13s, lowered, simple clean look, old skool motor? or am I wrong?
escortwithsunroof Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 i think your about right there, but there could be more
NeilT Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 got to be running 13" wheels be a standard ford period colour no areches stripes ect and normaly a larry pinto or x-flow and always on its arse well thats my understanding of it and i live in south london lol
stevepeanut Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Posted March 14, 2009 what confuses me is that description of a lowered car on 13s nice and simple with a tuned oldskool motor, is like a lot of the cars all over the uk, so dont get why its called south london look
lotusless Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 because us saarff londoners started it all while the rest of the country had jack up kits still!!! + wait for the backlash now
Trevmk3 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 because it is sounds better than the north Derby look ect
