Well, this half-wrapped Audi A3 description says "black camo", but it definitely looks more like flock wallpaper to me.

Tragic.

That’s been for sale for a while. I went and looked at it January 2020. It’s had quite a hard life.

It has been slowly dropping in price over the last year or so. Get shot of the stripes and yellow on the wheels and it would look half reasonable.

That’s nasty.

After having my interest piqued on used pricing for a gen 3 TT vs an R8, I found this gem... (apologies if pearoast)

Nothing fundamentally wrong at first glance, but the more you look, the worse it somehow feels.

Other than the basking shark grille I quite like that.

That's ugly. I'm not convinced the panels align up very well.

The front bumper has a large gap that shouldn't be there.

How on earth are those tints legal?

When good cars happen to bad people...

That’s horrible.

Is it just me or is there something fundamentally wrong about that wheel design? Is it something to do with what the bolts are fixing to what?

Other than that, how much money do you think they spent on making it look... a bit dull? The grille is the only thing that makes it stand out, and that just makes it look like one of the unbranded cars they use in adverts.

Seller says this Mk 1 Golf "needs work". He ain't lying.



Bonus points for Merc hubcaps, but only on the one side.

I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit that I quite like that

Same here, not that I would own it. Obviously takes inspiration from Roadkill’s General Mayhem

Anyone who puts this much care and attention into his photographs surely is a great person to buy a car from.

Great lockdown project with the kids... What, as in "Hey kids, let's smash this to bits with hammers..."?

I assume you do not like the rear Morrette light conversion? Easy to swap back.

What is more concerning is a Focus ST170 with 5+ owners, no service history and CAT N is apparently worth over £2k.

That is absolutely hideous, who could possibly even contemplate buying it!? And it’s a manual, the advert thinks it’s a bonus

[E63eeeeee...]

If you're buying a Cayenne, surely you already don't care what it looks like.
