Default Worst / funniest car in your works carpark

You can take pics if you like, but I cant be blamed if you get caught and get a hiding for it

There is a guy in my work who drives a 1.6gl sierra, at least I think thats what it started life as. It gets a paint job at least once a months. Its been:-
1. The general lee
2. American police car
3. Camoflague car
4. Zebra

It cracks me up. The bloke just gets the paint brush too it at the weekend. He is a really nice guy who doesnt give a stuff what anyone thinks and we all cant wait to see his next creation .........

Go on then top that ........

The ultimate muppert mobile we had here was a Fiat Punto Sporting. It was covered with stickers, mini spoilers and god knows what else. He even had some B&Q kitche door handles over the rear number plate for some reason. Kept meaning to get a picture of it, but he has left now.

I spotted a calibra in our works car park a few weeks ago and it was shockingly bad! I didn't take photos because I think it was the security guards car

There is a green VTS in our neighbours car park. I'm sure he has 18" wheels on it and / or lowered.

You can see a build up of rubber on his wheel arches

Or there is a bloke near where i live with a reliant robin that has flame stickers on the wheel arches. Whenever i see it, i never have my camera

Many years ago, a mate of mine's next door neighbour had a Robin. Mirrored tints, rally fogs, rear wing and TWO alloys. Used to make a point of poncing about 'round it whenever we were out tinkering with whatever proper motors we had at the time as if he was trying to fit in Best bit was though, and this really used to crease me, it had.......

Didn't go off when the local kids tipped it up onto it's @r5e one night

There is nothing wrong with a Dimma widebody kit, if your building a T16 replica

But to a road going classic, no way.

That would have to be my Rover BRM !

Funny though, never had so much positive reaction to a car, my Fiat Coupe met with complete apathy, perhaps they are humouring me and think I may be 'special'.

There is one worst, a stickered Nissan Serena, its all Scouting Stickers and the bumpers are accented with faded Day Glo yellow, the entire back window is full of stickers, the driver we call the 'The Child Catcher'

Please tell me you're joking!!!

If Solberg is a legend, what is Juha Kankkunen, Carlos Sainz, Tommi Makkinen, Timo Salonen, Michel Mouton, etc etc.....

Chill out FFS......

Default If only he would bring his car back....

A man that works in the building next door drives an escort with a big spoiler, a
massive scoop, rally pins and probably loads of other things I can't remember. I really wish he would bring it back in so I could get a photo. The last time I saw it my brother called in to see me and as we were chatting outside when this fella starts it up.

Even with a fat back box on it, the sound was like a lawn mower. My brother yells '1.4 or 1.6 mate?' and bursts into laughter.

Hes not driven it in since which is a real shame as I want a photo. A vivid blue colour with silver bits, must have cost him a small fortune to do but it looks very sorry.
