Is he too posh to pump his own tyres or is the Offside suspension fubarred? 

Might be an optical illusion, a flat tyre or indeed a suspension fail. I'm leaning toward the first guess because this was taken in a part of Mercedes-Benz World at Brooklands that's viewable by the publics; there's an adjacent quite-concealed area where any fucked motors would be parked I imagine. Corporate Image, yeah?

While we're at M-BW and on this thread, I've never seen two motors with the same plate together before; I suspect daylight is being shone onto the backstage machinations of the Marketing and Advertising department. A video where the old model morphs into the new one perhaps.

I am all shook up. Saw this today in Polegate but couldn't get a piccie - ELV 1S on a Vauxhall Mockery

I have seen this too, but didn't think it would count as no photo haha!

Also I must live pretty close to you since Beachy Head is close enough for me to cycle around fairly often.

I know the owner of ELV1S very well. Interesting character, appeared on Come Dine With Me and has just remarried the woman he divorced in 1969.

On that there M40 London bound last week, some flash thing whizzed passed, could't tell you if it were a Frarry, Lambo, Ron Dennis Specioal, but It had 4 1NCH on the reg.   41 NCH spaced 4 INCH.  made me smile.

i''VBE just checked DVSA, it was a Porky 911, clearly I was distracted by the plate

Here's a close relative. The plate is misleading as Fairlanes could be had with a V8 but this one is a six. It's basically a stretched and slightly posher version of what dollywobbler has been driving around NZ, an ex funeral limo but bizarrely licensed as a bus!

04 plate Tesla in front of me this morning. Checked it out and its a 2018 car with a non-posh  old plate. Strange but true.

Might be sentemental - I used to work with a GP that had a boggo Cxxx zzz number plate  - apparently kept it from the first ever car he owned - seemed weird seeing it on an all singing all dancing Merc
