Today, car park at John Lewis in Bristol.

Maybe it's a genuine one and this is a clever 'double bluff'?

Insufficient exhausts for an M3.



No vents in the front wings. Wrong mirrors, too.



ETA: It's only the plate that's claiming that it's an M3; the badge is just an M. However, the plate leaves you in no doubt as to what the owner wants you to think it is. Shame, really, because it's probably a nice car. As it stands, though, it's a bit sad.

Badge says 'M' not 'M3" just means they've bolted on some M parts.

Why didn't you wait for him to come back, kick him in the face and then when he falls down vomit on him ?

Or did you?

In a disabled space as well, I take it that's at Cribbs Causway, its not like there's a shortage of spaces... rolleyes (unless they were actually disabled!)

No way is this genuine doesnt have a carbon roof and I would imagine would be very expensive and stupid to replace with a normal metal one it is obviously some tosser trying to trick people into thinking his 330d is an M3 when they is no point as they are both good cars in there own right and he has managed to ruin it.

I thought that. Maybe he/she has had an M3 previously and likes the plate.

No excuse for the font though smile

It wouldn't really look too bad if the plate didn't have that ridiculous font and BMW badge on it, but it's certainly not fooling anyone.

I agree, it did cross my mind until I noticed the font.

Sad indeed.

Almost as sad as this character who has a new CL500 and feels he/she has to badge it as a CL63 AMG!! Why....

People like that should be publicly stoned, then killed to death.
Why let them get high first? biggrin

Don't disabled people buy BMWs then, or is it the law that they must have a Kangoo?
