Default the least practical car i've seen in a supermarket car park



Just nipped to morrisons in Edgbaston, Brum and this beauty was just in carpark with shopping on passenger seat. It's steamed up to fuck inside which i guess is a mixture of a) shit build quality b) hot engine on a cold day. Pretty epic none the less. All the glass was etched as lambo, had massive brembo's on the front, etc so don't think it's a kit car.

Saw a BMW 1M on way home too - I now have some serious car envy on the go.

I was going to say nice parking but you can't see anything out of the back window on them.

not necessarily, not all flash cars are owned by millionaire footballers, it could just as likely be owned by an everyday guy working his ass off each week just so he can afford the finance on such a car

Having googled the plate it appears the owner may be Peter Pannu, who has something to do with football and is most probably a millionaire!!

Fair enough, I was just saying that just because someone can afford a car like that it doesn't mean its 'easy come,easy go'
Could as easily be owned by someone who works hard to pay for it like everyone on here with there fords.

Not having a dig at all, just amazed at how much you can find out on google really!

I hate people who assume that because you have a nice car you are easy come easy go too. When I had the BMW I was paying out proportionally alot of money against my earnings and people had that attitude of "it's alright for them" It pisses me off that people would rather hate than stand back and admire and would rather be an arsehole and try an ruin something for you than try and achieve something themselves.

unfortunately thats just what most modern people are like.

The younger the worse it is. Some people become more balanced as they grow up and realise if you want something you have to earn it.

But sadly most today dont grow up with that earn it attitude. They just get angry that others have more than them. They then as they get older become all bitter and twisted with a big chip on thier shoulder.

I get it a lot with the stokie CHAV scum around here. lots of "you rich cunt" comments because ive got a nice car. Or the other one is they dont like the fact that someone like me has a nice car so the other comment i get a lot is "whats someone like you doing with a car like that?" they seem to think that because im not some "likely lad" or wannabe idiot that i shouldnt drive a modified fast car

I love winding such types up.

The irony is most of the ones who make comments are dole dossing benefit scum who almost always have a higher gross income than me and certainly have a higher disposable income than me.

so if i can afford a nice car on less money than them then they are fucking mugs not me. But then i dont drink, dont take drugs, dont have footie season tickets, dont have sky, dont have ps3/xbox/massive plasma etc etc.

Where as they piss all thier money away on shit and still want a nice car.

Our yard is just round the corner form the new Morrisons in Edgbaston i've seen the that Lambo before.
There's plenty of money around Edgbaston just down the road from Morrisons off a side road from the Bristol Road is a huge house with two DB9's always parked up on the drive.
