A distastefully and/or poorly modified car. Modifications usually include garish colour schemes, poorly designed/
ill-fitting body kits, stupid spoilers (unaerodynamic aerodynamic
aids), hideous alloy wheels/spinners (which
may be too large for the car, preventing the front wheels from actually turning) and unfeasibly large exhausts creating illeagal noise levels. The car
may be driven around whilst still being in the process of said modifications. Look out for unpainted primmer, filler and dodgy patches of respray!
Carbage is often created from
10-year-old-plus cheap cars such as a:
Nova, Escort, Fiesta, 205, etc, but is not exclusively limited to this end of the automobile spectrum. Plenty of expensive cars have also been bastardized through this process.
Carbage is usually driven by the common chav, who thinks that their "wheels"/creation is the dogs
bollocks.
Chavs take their ride to a cruise/krooz (or mcdonalds car park) to show it to other equally unsavoury folk.
The word Carbage is believed to have first appeared on the
BBC Top
Gear website, where there is an extensive gallery of prime examples.
The
easy way of spotting a piece of Carbage from the cheap end of the spectrum is that by all appearances it seems to have had an accident in the Ripspeed department of Halfords.
1. That
Nova is a piece of Carbage!
2. Who would bastardize a Lexus with Burberry Stripes?! What a piece of
fucking Chav carbage!
3.Did you see all those cars in
McDonalds? What a load of absolute carbage!
