I wouldn't start putting graphics on it, that's deeply naff IMO, as is 'baiting' supercars.
if you happen to be next to a 911 at the lights and he goes for it, then great! but be honest, when was the last time that happened???

You will spend your life beating up diesel Audis, well done... all the time looking like an unsuccessful plumber

I'm not quite sure where you got 'baiting aupercars' from ? I don't see that anywhere in this thread, no ?
Also, as said above, I don't pretend that it'll take a decent 911. I have other cars for that
And in answer to your question, in my experience, Porsche drivers are some of the most likely to want to race off the lights
Maybe it's your car attracts diesel Audi racers, whatever it may be

Its not about what they are driving, its about their attitude.

Nova or noble, if they genuinely think they have the fastest thing on the road it is ALWAYS fun educating them.

usually best educating Essex type MILF's in their white 320 MSport BMW's that try and undertake you and watching them get confused as to how the gap they eyed up closed so quickly when they tried to push in

Excellent! Going to be keeping an eye on this thread

Signwriting now added

[carreauchompeur]

Good beans. Love the lack of wheel trims too.

[anonymous-user]

love the sign writing. i don't think it looks naff, i am guessing it is tongue in cheek, a bit naughty, 'inside joke', not a master baiting supercar champion

[carreauchompeur]

Can you please, please post up a video of how it goes and sounds though?

Haha, yeah it's all very much tongue in cheek.
The sole purpose of buying the van is to have a laugh and probably do a few track days
I know its childish, but the best fun we've had so far is going out baiting boy racers in subarus and things like cupra r's
I'll get a go-pro vid up some time soon

Amused that "Astra Sleeper" is an anagram of "Please Arrest".
