I happened upon this today! Amy parked infront of it at asda and I thought of this thread immediately! Not my car though, but still

Poor compared to some but this was my recently departed Berlingo.

Because it's cheaper to do a shit job that only lasts as long as the warranty.

But that doesn't make sense... God knows what it cost for a main stealer to repaint this thing... but I bet it wasn't cheap!

But how many did they sell without repainting? overall the profit is higher.

Even some of the paint under the lacquer is disappearing!

I would post my car but it's kinda cheating.

 

The original lacquer came off, the paint underneath burned through, it was repainted with no lacquer coat, then all that burned off.

 

Last time I used the jet wash all the paint came off the hood and I was left with undercoat and rust...

Cheating or not cheating, that still sounds pretty impressive! A picture would not go amiss...

Peeled paint, check.

Remnants of old paint, check.

Original primer, check.

Rust, check.

Badly painted section in wrong color, check.

My uncle owns this magnificent example of lacquer peel

WTF happened with those headlamps?

Continental beam benders.

 

Suffering from ultraviolet breakdown of the glue holding them on, by the looks of it.

I often see "carteracts" like that and wonder how the fuck people see where they're going at night. I polish my Passat's lenses regularly and they're still bloody awful.

The Hyundai is starting to look very sorry for itself.

A Metro I owned a few years ago, caused by some vandal idiot scratching the paint down to the metal.

Realized I never posted this. Pretty much all of the roof has gone bad. I think I need to try and rescue it soon.

 These three are all the way past the laquer, through the paint and down to the primer - or the metal in the Astra's case
