As title, what's wrong with this picture.....

Why?
 
Oh, and by the way, the reason I have the photo is that I parked behind it in Cheltenham this morning...
 
The badge it's better to just to have a sleeper.
There's a guy around where I live and he's got an m5 with 518i badge on it

There was a lad working on a site where i was last year and had a 1.6 8l with s3 badges and chrome mirror caps and he swore blind it was a genuine one.... naturally all i could do was laugh lol.
 
There are a lot of Clio "Sports". Loads of owners seem to shop in Halfrauds and stick these sport badges on...
 
Don't worry guys, there wil be plenty of RS3 badges on the "bay" soon for him!
 
There is a 306 driving around Newton Armpit with an RS badge on it.... go figure!
 
Guys thats nothing. Theres a guy around cardiff with a really basic looking C class merc with a E55 AMG bagde on the back, ye a E bagde on a C class and has the biggest amg sticker/decal alive on both side of the car.

Its unbelieveable.
 
Lets give him the benefit of the doubt - could be the ultra-rare 'gmbh stealth pack' with reduced arches, no spoiler and tiny wheels. Combined with the even rarer 'badge in the wrong place' option that was only available for a limited time.
 
Anyone gone about this the other way round? Might put A4 2.0TDi on my boot lid....

I like that idea, where can I get a 1.6 badge??

My mate used to have a stripped out Corsa B with a C20 LET engine in it, tuned to about 260 bhp, and had a 1.2 16v badge on the back. Immense fun.

I debadged my 1.6 when I got it, you can have the badges if you want :happy:

I saw a brand new 5 series the other day with a Honda style Type-R badge on the back... :faint:
 
There is a matt black wrapped "M5" round our way, M5 wheels, M5 bodywork looks really well, except for the plume of black smoke when he booted it. Turns out it's a 520d.
The best I've seen though was an E36 3 series with massive TRD stickers on the full length of the car! WTF, you buy a BMW then try and pass it off as a Toyota?
 
I used to love my redtop corsa for stealth. Type r's and clio 172's especially were fun lol.
 
Classic! I also spotted the window tint is hanging off near the wiper...

You think that's bad - my car (a3) is debadged (fine - I like that) but had an S3 barge stuck on the dashboard. That's right, the dashboard!

It was stuck (luckily) to one of the blank buttons opposite the rear window demister. In my pics, you can still see the glue residue.

At last years Ford Fair at silverstone there was a 1.3L mk3 Escort in mint condition, all standard with brown cloth seats and steel wheels, all be it with some fatter tyres, but it was running 520bhp 4X4 Cossie running gear, quickest 0-60 of the day with 2.5 seconds and will crack the 100 in 6 seconds, talk about the ultimate sleeper, its got 750 bhp engine going in this year, blyme!!
 
buttonz, where's your gear stick surround and centre tray under the console?

Apologies, this was a pic half way through changing the centre console. The carpet was nice to see. I felt like leaving it like it as it felt more roomy in there :)

I had a redtop Corsa, the first day I got it back a lad I know with a 106GTI tried to pass me on a slip road, I let him get alongside then just disappeared, it was a savage little thing. I take it you only had fun with those two in a straight line though, I actually got a 172 after the Corsa and the Clio was just in a different league chassis wise.
 
I found it!

Its just round the corner from me today lol

Yea straight line was great but it weren't too bad in the corners really. Was on spax rsx coilovers and speedlines with decent tires and a v6 brake setup so did quite well although admittedly not a touch on the little Frenchy. Had a Williams shape 1800 16v as my first car.. cracking fun but rubbish reliability!
 
Lmao Dane. That cars gonna get stalked everywhere now haha
 
I thought, as I started to get close, wouldn't it be funny if that was the one Welly took a picture of... and low and behold!
