McLaren MP4-12C Ultimate Speed Edition

Features over and above standard;

  • Bigger turbos for more power and even less noise from the engine
  • Less weight through removal of non-functioning infotainment system
  • Even wider tyres for more cornering grip
  • Deletion of steering wheel, pedals, and any space for a driver to allow the on board computer to lap faster than a Noble M600, Ferrari 458 or Lamborghini Aventador.
Comes with a free Creepy Uncle Ron leather look blouson for that authentic market trader 'dun gud' chic

The MINI "Distraction"

This vehicle comes with a fake arm on the driver's door panel which coincidentally allows you to store your mobile phone on the hand which coincidentally presses the phone to your ear.

On the driver's seat is a periscope mirror system which allows sight of the road while looking down texting.

The rear view mirror is permanently fixed at 45 degree "Let's apply make-up" angle.

The car features an inflatable passenger so you idly chat to them while driving which provides automated random responses like "I know!", "Shut Up!" and "No way!"

The solar-activated sunblinds automatically extend a pair of Moschino huge sunglasses at face level.

The steering can be "locked" to straight ahead so the driver can root through the handbag on the conveniently huge "massive handbag shelf" in between the seats.

Useless extras like door mirrors have been removed.

The interior light is on all the time and comes in a choice of bronzed lights to emulate a tan so those envious looks aren't wasted.

The MP3 player comes pre-loaded with ghastly pop songs or tuned to "Radio Vacuous".

Needless to say the car comes with automatic gearbox only.

VW Golf TDI Innit bruv wikkid mapped edishun.

Based on a special re-tooled MK4 Golf 1.9 match, this remapped special has window tints that fade from black to silver to match the jewish racing gold paint, the no cost option gold plated tissue box sits on top of the parcel shelf holding it down due to the power from the 3 18inch sony X plod subwoofers.

Power is taken care of by an extra special combination of a resistor chip, a remap and a huge 6 inch exhaust.

To finish the car is dropped 80mm by cutting the standard springs and runs on 22inch Bentley alloys that have been chrome finished.

Range Rover Sport.

I'm pretty sure all of these cars exist, you guys just don't know the correct names for them. Again, its make UP special editions.

For instance: Nissan Micra 60

A Nissan micra that will actually sit at 60mph on roads, rather than 47.

The then-Editor of the Dutch Citroën CX Club mag did make a spoof limited edition up many moons ago that he 'spotted' in France:

The Citroën BX Malheureusement.

It had:

A 954 cc engine.
Only one sunvisor.
No tach, but no dashboard clock either.
No wheel trims.
No headrests.
Special body colour 'Brun Merde'

Etc. etc.

I think you could get early Citroën XMs with the 'Pack Panique' (dashboard warning lights all blinking at random times and sequences) and 'Pack Feu' (which made the car randomly set fire to itself), too...

The Harley Davidson MLCE (Mid Life Crisis Edition)

A bike with an excessivly loud exhaust designed to be ridden by an accountant in his late 40's wearing an open faced crash helmet with 'shades' not sun glasses, blue denim jeans and an extra soft leather jacket.

The suspension has been specially set up to make the bike unstable at walking pace so the rider has to ride with both feet down. The crap as standard brakes are designed to stop the rider from riding at speeds beyond his talent, about 50mph.

The bike uses the same technology as rain sensing windscreen wipers coupled with real time updates via a live internet feed from the national meterology office to prevent use whenever rain is forcast.

The engine is warrantied for 1000 miles per annum.

BMW 3 series "try hard"

Cloth trim, 20" M-sport alloys, bottom spec, 1.1 litre engine, extra BMW badges everywhere - also when you switch the ignition on it brings up a selection of messages on a digital display including "well done mate!" "You've made it" "see, aren't you glad you didn't buy that high spec bigger engined mondeo?" "don't forget to say BMW instead of car in every sentence - eg I'm taking the BMW to the shops"
Fixed that for you, no badge snob would be seen dead in a BMW without the just-like-an-M3 wheels.
