misbadging cars

[iva cosworth]

Saw a Brabus and AMG E class today going by the 2 boot badges.

Though I doubt it was either looking at it.

DU 07 RRX was the reg.....6.2 rip roaring V8 or disappointing diesel ?

I think I've seen this too? In Uxbridge it was, to be honest I was sceptical.

It's a 3L diesel.

I didn't get a picture, but I saw a Chrysler 300C today.

The 6.2 V12 CRD version

I saw an M3 touring/estate on the back of a lowloader a couple of weeks ago.

I know of a genuine one, 318 touring refinished with a written off M3

That doesn't make it a genuine one.

A genuine one would be manufactured in Munich.

What you have seen is a half decent replica.

Amazing, he can't even use the 'It's an M Sport excuse' either as it's a completely standard SE!

That's the MCubed. Basically, it's a regular 3 Series SE multiplied by itself three times.

I quite fancy one of these....



...badged as a 318i

On my small mobile screen that looks like a normal 3 series with some awful wheels on it :s

That's why I like it.

Yeah I had to reverse back a bit to get the standard SE wheels in to show just how bad a job it is!

Is that badly parked? and in a disabled space? (though I can't see if they qualify to park there or not)

The rare Zafira Type R was on the prowl this morning.

The person driving it looked an absolute cretin.

Something tells me they were from The Isle of Man.

[matty0194]

My mate spent £6K on a 10 plate VW Polo at 17 yrs old crazy! And he order these horrible stupid looking Dotz wheels and a GTI badge on a 3Cyl 1.2 59BHP and a GTI front grill lmfao hes a showoff btw hate people ruing nice cars cars should stay stock in my opinion. Example: if you want a sporty car get a S4 not an A4 with a different badge

[LordJammy]

Or buy an A4, then put an S4 engine in it and go around surprising people. The only time when misbadging is appropriate.

Followed a facelift Rover 75 estate this afternoon. The owner had removed the "V" and replaced it with a "G", so that it read ROGER.

Might not have looked so bad had the G not been a Halfords special and bigger than the other standard letters so it stood out like a sore thumb
