I blame reality TV. Give money to people with no taste and they buy fancy homes with electric gates as well as vulgarities like that to park in front of them. Hanging's too good, etc.

its all the rage down in Grays!!!!!

Towie factor I fear?

Wonder where the plates that it is on are from- may explain its outlandish nature.

Sadly, there's a similarly shavery Bentley down in Newcastle, it's a coupé shaped thing and is mostly Magnolia but with bright green wheels and red accents oh, and it has roundels on the doors with numbers in them.
I would have stopped for a picture but the guy getting into the car was huge, dripping with gold and dressed in a manner that suggested he'd not been told that the 90s were finished (think shell suit, Kappas, ski goggles and a fez).

Actually, I wonder; will we find it on Street View? (Osborne Avenue, face left, left in the next junction and the Bentley's location is to the left just before the next crossroads)..

Nome. Bother! The Esso station shewn in SV was demolished two years ago and the £265,000 upper flat around the corner is still on with the same estate agency, only now it's at £199,950. Tut tut Google, up to date photos of tastelessly presented luxury motors please, or your IQ's going in the river again.

have you got a pic?

I found a replacement MR2 for you Rich:

those are just awful, thanks mate!
the one in my original post was interesting as fitting a v8 motor was a bit of a challenge to fit by the look of it.. might have been something of interest for aron & give him an idea for his next project
id love another mister 2, just a uk spec car next time

I don't think you could call any of those "UK Spec".
If you want to see some "French spec" cars google "barryboys French shed lottery"

the french do gaudy very well
