yeah, she's right mate, unless you know it has been done properly, many modded cars have been bodged and I'm afraid to say it but a lot of the time thrashed to hell! But I know a few people I would buy modded cars from due to the fact they look after them so well. You just have to be very wary as with buying any car. But buy a standard one and do it yourself and you can say "I did that" if you know what I mean.

It can be advantagous buyin a car that has had some mods done, cos it can save you some money, best to alter a few things though so it is personalised to you like!
