Ok the search button isnt working and im not sure whether its been mentioned.

However, has anyone seen Stephen "Inconspicuous" Irelands Audi R8 for sale on autotrader? I cant believe they want £70k for a car that looks like that, search for white audi R8's and it stands out like a very ugly, very sore thumb!!

Are the parts on the car actually painted or wrapped (im guessing painted)? Its even got after market lights, re-coloured calipers etc so surely its going to cost a bit to put back to factory spec?

On another note how much did he spend ruining this car? £10k or more...?

Whatever it is, it's twice what it should have been.
Didn't he originally do it in red before his Citeh team-mates reminded him that they play in blue?

Here's the car in all it's ghastly glory:

Horrible R8 for sale

They have said it can be returned to original spec, although it's over-priced for the age and mileage!

And as if he's got a "Superman" logo (a la Shaquille O'Neil) on the petrol cap!
At least Shaq kept his logos IN the car! rolleyes

yikes OMG that is truly hideous.

Once again just goes to prove the old saying that money certainly does not equal taste!

I saw a white one with orange highlights last year in San Francisco. It looked pretty crap, this takes the biscuit.
