These pictures make my teeth itch

Those last two pictures: help me out here.

Also, it seems as though we're determined to out-OCD each other with increasingly small irregularities such that I suspect, in contrast to the OP's pics, the more recent ones don't even come close to making your teeth itch.

Look at the top column...

Edit: probably doesn't help that I took it at an angle. But it's off centre compared to the others.

The 'Range Rover' text is pissed

The Range Rover for me is the black bootlid that's lower than the black rear pillars. If it was silver I'd be much happier with that.

I hadn't noticed the 'Range Rover' text.
I thought it was the centre two parking sensors that are not equal distance from the centre of the car!

Ooh, that is a truly terrible car!

the Range Rover one loosm to me like both words are in a slight arch rather than straoght across - is that what you are referring ti?

I think they are straight until you get midway through Rover then they start to droop

I think its because its set back a bit rather than being out of line, with the angle of the photo making it look off centre

Not sure if this goes here or else where. My other half opening the bread today.

They would have to knock it down a re-do it if that were my place!

MK4 Golf mirrors, All i think of is Finding Nemo



Also the different drivers and passenger trim handles

Never seen a Mk4 with asymmetrical door mirrors (mine certainly didn't).

That's so wrong! What's wrong with symmetry in Germany?

Nothing, the first pic is a mk4 car, the 2nd is a mk5 /
Mk6

Wheels whose spoke symmetry clashes with their bolt symmetry. I can't bear to look at them.

Forgive me for being stupid, and not an engineer (by the way this topic is baffling, especially to an arty type like me who finds a small amount of imperfection inspiring) but....

Doesn't it make sense to have the screw holes not aligned with the spokes? Surely it's best to have the strongest point of the hub where the spoke meets the centre bit? Rather then drilling a hole in the specific section where the greatest load is going to be...

I see three pictures of two different versions of the MK4 golf, an SE (or whatever the mid range trim level is in your country of choice) and an .:R or some other version with .:R mats

I see no MK5 or 6

There wasn't a MK4 Golf R.

The problem is not whether the bolts are in line with the spokes or between the spokes.

The problem is having 4 bolts on a 5-spoke wheel, 5 on a 6-spoke etc - They will never align in any way that looks correct!

But there was an .:R32, which is the car in the picture
