I checked & they were indeed solid.

Well of course - you wouldn't want the property cars falling in the bonnet

Not the best photos as I just cut them off my dash cam but check out this AMG Lupo

There's a bloke at my local Tesco who has a Mk2 Focus and has covered it in ST badges and Red detailing (including the rear drum brakes... very ST!)

I'll see if I can get a picture sometime, but I don't want him to see me giving it any attention and give him any more encouragement!

I used to have a Prancing Moose on my Volvo C30 T5...

This cock socket, badged C63 except its a C250D excuse the frame grab from my dashcam

Not only that but the person driving (female) was driving like a complete plank weaving in and out of traffic, nearside overtaking on a dual carriageway etc etc with a baby on board, bravo you stupid tart.

Plate & badge, must be true!

Clocked a 65 plate Audi A3. S3 badge on the back & big "quattro" stickers running down each flank Definitely no "S3" & my money is on it being FWD to boot. I don't know what is going through these folks heads....

Overtook an AMG badged C-Class with the plate CK63 AMG last week, thing is - it's a C180. Tragic

Cant beat a bit of Biggun. Sadly I know that and most of his other songs word for word due to a very misspent youth..

Yet another bell end, diesel Q3 with RS badges and an attempt at an RS number plate (R5 ---) Also driven like a complete tosser.

I'd dig the photo out, buts it's just a boggo mkiv r32.

I got lined up on my first run what ya brung drag day with an r32. Which was exciting as I was in the forced induction class and I was interested in what I assumed was a supercharged v6. His reaction was quicker but I had him up to about 65 then he went past me, which was unexpected since I was in a Touran.

Fully kitted and badged 1.9 diesel. Even had a cheesy "got boost?" Sticker!

Spotted this a few weeks ago. Hardly the worst example of 'misbadging' ever, but surely a case of 'when bad things happen to good cars'

I'm split on this one. Yes, ultimately I think he should have kept it original. This said, I think Ford were nuts to not give it the RS Turbo name, with the huge cult following of the earlier RSTurbo's.

Peugeot should do this though.

+1. They could seriously do with some cred points, and it would 'work'.

Whenever I get a car at work with an M, AMG, Type R etc stuck on badge I always mark it as damage on the pre inspection.
