Ye Gods - sorry but for me it lacks taste. Am I the only one who thinks it a rather terrible camouflage to add to a pretty body.

And another thing, how do you get at the bodywork to do any repairs to it - rust for example?

I saw this done to a VW van on Wheeler Dealer by Ed China. I had to admit, it looked better on that vehicle, but the repair and rust question is what immediately came to mind.

Still, perhaps I'm showing my age. I like the beauty of the original bodywork and don't feel the need these days to advertise 'aggression'. Mind you, there's something very pleasant indeed about pottering about but with a twitching right foot ready to drop a gear and whizz past some obstructive oik (or doddery 60 year old)....!

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

It does look a bit like an inverted colour Cardiff taxi!

That said, I quite like it, as a cross between a Z3, Killer whale and spat shoe... What I mean is that I'm glad my Zed is gloss black and this is on someone else's but it's still nowhere near as terrible as that one with 4 exhausts and a hideous bodykit, or that mad purple French one with the flaming skulls all over it.

Could be worse, could be an MX-5!
