Horrible mix of angles, curves and bumps.

Also, am I right in thinking that the rear plate is illegal as it’s not vertical?

Essential addition here biggrin

Being on MX5nutz has completely desensitized me to some of the terrible looking MX5's out there.

I don't mind a big wang (giggity), but it's got to fit with the rest of the car.

I drive past this every day. It's nice, well looked after and can't see anything wrong with it imho.
I just prefer the look of a stock Nissan Cedric, I think this one looks too much like a Jaguar.

Can that be legal?

Not being one I'm relaxed about it, but it seems the ideal Adam's apple height for cyclists...or indeed the right amputation height for any pedestrian coming over from the bonnet area.

I want to say 8th gen Nissan Cedric? But with a Jag front end. It's well done, but looks awful. Got to be up there on the "why the fk bother" stakes.

You've got a sharper eye than me if so, I presumed it was just an XJ6/8
