misbadging cars

[MikeOxlong]

I saw a complete anus in Newark yesterday who'd replaced the badges on his 300C with Bentley ones.
He saw me scowling at him whilst the traffic was stopped an he knew what he'd done.

Well obviously he knew, I saw a Vivaro type r today, complete with silly aftermarket DRL's, no pics as it was being driven by a couple of rough looking 3.14 keys.

No photo sadly, but a chappie in Scarborough adorned his Mitzi GTO 3000 with about 20 turbo badges, and then on each front wing 16V...........??????
With another brain cell he could have been a rubber plant.

I seen a vauxhall vectra GTI the other day.

Actually took a snap of this for the bad number plate thread, but as it was a diesel with 'R' badges i think it works here as well...

God awful matt grey paint job as well, which looked like primer could also be a contender for the badly modified cars thread......Triple whammy...go on !

I don't think this is a V10, or has a 335d engine in it.

The plate is correct though. Knob...

You got enough crap stuck on your boot lid ?

He felt it was a bit light on the back and chose decorative ballast.

My dad spoke of lads who would hot-up an Austin 7 and put a bag of cement in the back to keep it down. This is just a modern take on that idea.

An M335i

The M looked a bit wonky. As far as I could tell there i no such thing (in the UK at least). The 335i is a nice car, why do this?

It's like the automotive equivalent of a 'Doge' meme.

[Sensibleboy]

Why does it seem to be BMWs that are the biggest offenders?
