Teh Spotted Thread

[Rich B]

WTAF is this all about?

I mean, as if the X2 isn't ugly enough already.

When I first saw it I thought it was a fuck you to the BMW M1. It’s the only other BMW I can think off with badging in that location?

M1 badges are on the rear not the sides...

[Mito Man]

Thought it had them on the sides too but it’s just a fuel filler cap.

[Rich B]

Either way, those X2 ones are awful aren’t they!

[Mito Man]

Yep, I wonder if it’s because the small car segment is so generic that it’s purely there so most NCGs can tell what they’re looking at. See the picture in the 1 series thread with the side profile shots of everything looking pretty similar.

^ Reckon so, see also brands and/or models in large lettering across the boot


I saw some hateful badging earlier, an A2 with the A removed and different font RS instead

The X2 is one of the least offensive looking BMWs in the current lineup. Badges don't bother me at all either.

No pics but saw a newish 911 with a blue/orange Gulf wrap on it. Lower half may have been made to look like it was covered in dirt, I can’t recall and it was just a glimpse.

just seen it again in my commute:

I didn't realise that you were lift sharing with Beany.

Saw my first F40 the other day and a McLaren of some sort. There's also an absolutely mint mk1 fiesta being driven by an old guy in the village. How it hasn't succumbed to road I don't know.

Didn't quite match you on the Chinooks today but did get another 4 military helicopters as well...

Plus another 4 over St. Pauls. Maybe they're off for a day out.

[Mito Man]

Maybe the Russians are coming

[Rich B]

They just went over Guildford too.

[ZedLeg]

Probably running drills for the Trump visit.

[Rich B]

Spotted this afternoon - the very definition of subtle..

[Rich B]

It looks SO much better without the awful wrap...

[Mito Man]

Is that a fucking mansory kit on it? It’s the worst looking 6x6 I’ve seen.

like it makes any difference! They’re grotesque monstrosities no matter what bumpers nd grill you choose!

(Yeah, I still like them though!)

Silver Carrera GT in Buckingham

First one I’ve ever seen in the uK

Ha! I feel this looks better from a distance, and in motion.
