Default Anyone heard of Gemballa ..... ?

On the way home from work today I was 'mauled' by what I can only describe as a Porsche Cayenne on steroids ! Matt black paint work, flared arches and huge wheels. It sounded amazing and was just badged up as 'Gemballa'. Had never heard of them until I searched the web !!! May have to cancel my order for an Overfinch !!!

Don't you mean, if you "Have" taste, stick with the Overfinch.

No taste, or footballer = Gemballa

EDIT

I thought Overfinch had gone bust?

....to be fair they are both pretty ghastly !! If I had the money it would be the Overfinch, though it sounds like their warranty wouldn't be up to much !!!

Gemballa are to Porsche what AMG are to Mercedes. Seriously 'sick' cars. Although the owner was murdered not long back.

Gemballa do seem to take the **** when it comes to styling. Their 911s are way over the top. **** star **** and lips on an otherwise normal enough body.

^Thats just ruined it. Still a lot better than the majority of project Kahns that at a single stroke of £10,000 manage to lose all class that the Range Rover had.
