I like the wheels on the 6 series.

You can keep the rest of it.

It was a red 645 before someone did that to it.

Ok, I'd probably have the engine too.

To be fair, I've never really liked the 6 anyway.

Staying with the brand, can't tell if this is a piss take or not. I think that's another "320i" badge on the wing!

I wonder if it's a little sneaky, 320 (cubic) inches = 5.2 litre?

Are add on spots becoming a 'thing' again?

This took me a few seconds to spot, it's a 1998 CLK with a more modern C Class Coupe bits on it. Bonus points must be given for advertising it with a headlight bulb out, and no interior photos I'm guessing because of the 1998 interior.

Probably one for the misbadging thread too, I can't work out what engine it has from the advert, but I'd put money that it's not the engine from a C63 as the badges suggest, though I can't read dutch and too lazy to translate it.

Credit where it's due, some work has gone into it, but why? Surely a real C-Class coupe can't be that expensive, they're 10 years old now I think, then just stick some C63 badges on if you wish.

Well, it says 218hp. Loving the panel gaps of the bonnet. Just what the village idiot wants to cruise the high street.

So I guess it's a CLK320 underneath, decent engine at least, but not a C63, not that it ever would be being a CLK, which I believe is the E-Class Coupe of it's day.

I hate to make assumptions, but I assume whoever drives it is probably a bit of a tt, or blind, or both.

That reminds me of something (and not just a slab of Bourneville). Some mid-70s styling exercise or something.

I thought I could forgive William Towns anything for the amazing Aston Martin Lagonda but this is just a crime too far!

I lucked out today.





In the same small car park there were also

A Mercedes c22d AMG - complete with scaffold quad exhaust.

An e46 m3 - the only things M3 about it were the M3 XXX number plate and BMW M/// numberplate surround.

E46 touring M3 black on black on black on the floor.

I could only sneak these pics of the 6 series as it wasn’t the safest area and I thought I might get abused!
I've seen that one on the road before! genuinely terrible.
