Too much overt presence for me.
Presume the owner thought it wiser to take the bus.

And an exemplary bit of parking.

It does scream a bit gangsta, but i think maybe with traditional AMG wheels (even though its not an AMG) it would look alright?
It seemed like a really clean example.

I like it.
The only thing putting me off is the quad exhaust tail pipes.
The rest of it looks tough.

Looks like a mess, wheels don't suit the car, probably owned by a chav who was late for a drug deal and didn't have time to park with consideration to others!

I agree, wouldn't go near it, it looks a right bastardisation. Shame really :eek::rolleyes::(

Parking and driving aside, the exhausts are okay in my book

However, slammin' an S class, fitting over wide aftermarket wheels, undersized, stretched rubber (it looks like) with heavily tinted windows (though not the fronts surprisingly) pushes this up the chav scale.

Pity....

Different wheels would help to rehabilitate it, INMO.

Fugly - looks chavvy and as if it was parked by a chav!

Barryboys wants its car back.

Chaps, chaps, chaps, I have been looking over our comments on this thread regarding this fellows pride and joy and, must admit, I'm somewhat embarrassed. :eek:

He's made the car to suit his own taste after all, it may not be yours or mine, however, I feel we could have been kinder. ;)

We have condemned him as a chav and, a bad driver for daring to have different a taste to us and a momentary lapse in parking technique, I mean who hasn't parked inappropriately at some time? I also suspect that we have all "modified" something in a similar manner too. I know I have been guilty of both, over the years.

As Wighty mentioned he may be a club member, how would you feel if your P&J was verbally torn to shreds by the group?

We should be more welcoming I think.
My Mum always said, "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing".
That saying continues to haunt me as an adult.:rolleyes:

Just sayin' :)
