These pictures make my teeth itch

No, I think that’s a perspective thing - the exhausts are parallelogram shaped on that model.

They were definitely different.

Mismatched exhaust tips: one angled, the other squared off.

I'm still going with the perspective thing. They aren't slash cut top to bottom, they are mirrored parallelograms when viewed from behind. The far on looks squared off due to the viewing angle cancelling out the angles of the tip.

Even though the poster who took the picture said that they didn't match, just 3 posts further up?

Then they should have taken a better picture to illustrate that.

But it’s much more fun to have people posting that they’re interpreting a 2D picture in 3D differently to the person who took it.

It's a Range Rover Sport and the parallelogram exhaust is a thing.

Probably more the large piece of plastic coving missing which was letting the draft in.

i.e. didn't need a whole new door, just a new coving piece and a new eurolock. Total bill would have been a fraction the cost of the new door.

Yes. But also the new door looks pants and to my eye worse than the original (but with a cost of probably £1500+)

I like the new door more. The old one looks like they took a blank door and stuck all the leftover bits of trim to it. Like a bad handmade greetings card.

all of the above, plus the massive chunk of in-fill on the left

Double whammy...

The fact that the camera for the digital rear view mirror on the higher spec newer Transit Customs appears to be fitted freehand and is in different places on the rear door on seemingly every van (once you notice you can't unsee the location differences), but also how much of a mess it makes getting in the way of the signwriting...

The M&E sticker is making my teeth itch as well.

It's LED, just didn't photograph well. It was all working otherwise that'd have distracted me from the camera and sign writing at the time

Yes, it's an artifact of LED lights. Similar to stage coach wheels turning backwards on old westerns.

I've noticed that with practice I can make the high level brake light on my Ranger come on before the other brake lights.

Don't know why I felt the need to tell you that
