Clownage

Outlaw 06 · 06-09-2010, 10:15 AM

BMW Motorsport badges are meaningless to most people other than car enthusiasts (who recognize a real ///M when they see one). So who do the poseurs think they’re impressing with bogus ///M badges glued onto their ordinary 3-Series cars? It’s quite pathetic really…

Hairyarse · 06-09-2010, 01:23 PM

that 118d just looks so wrong with the M-badge stuck under

Em135eye · 06-09-2010, 02:59 PM

Ahem - some may consider M Sport badges on a non M car to be in the same category...

***dons coat, runs away***

If we are going down that route, what about M-Sport Spoilers etc on SE's ?

Its a big hole ......lol.

Each to their own I say - how many "XR3i's / XR2's" where there that where actually 1.4 escorts / Fiestas a few years ago ?

Em135eye · 06-10-2010, 04:05 AM

I know - let's not go down that route.

Let's take this one instead:

remember it is the M25, surprised there isn't parking meters along the hard shoulder.

esscolab · 06-10-2010, 06:58 AM

I see them daily on the A12 in Essex. Sometimes I drive alongside sneering hoping they get the message. It is very sad and is usually driven by some chav guy...

ss134 · 06-10-2010, 03:50 PM

Not sure if this qualifies as clownage as it doesnt have an M badge on the boot

- will be surprised if anyone beats this......Honda Civic 'M3'

sheps · 06-10-2010, 05:00 PM

Right now he represents the pinnacle of clownage.
He is, I think, hereby crowned king of clownage.
Unless someone can find better, of course....
