Well, they're only carrying on the work of the designers who pretty much sat outside a Bentley dealership with a sketchbook and pencil.....

That's not uncommon, I've seen quite a few like that, Are people really that dim (don't answer that), I saw this one at a Polish car cleaners in town.

 

Bentley badge on Chrysler 300C, Why??!! by Trigger's Retro Road Tests!, on Flickr

[Guest]

Every single stretch limo version I've ever seen of those Chryslers has been badged up as a Bentley.

[MrDuke]

In all seriousness, this really puzzles me. It's so obviously NOT a Bentley, despite the carbon-copy styling - they're completely different sizes, for one thing. I can understand someone sticking one Bentley badge on there, in an attempt to be tongue-in-cheek humorous, but why would anyone actually re-badge the entire car in an effort to convince everyone it was something totally different? Really, really strange.

I'd love to see a few of the folk who've bought these. I'm imagining a chubby wide boy in his early forties who owns a few diggers and rents them out for a living, obv got a personal plate and probably has an L200 ANIMAL with 'Barry Khan' wheels for going on building sites with digger spares and that. Would love a real Bentley but is just not there yet financially. Got a house in Spain near where loads of other fat-headed english folk live, but he's wishing he'd never bought that now.

There was a Chrysler taxi badged as a Bentley in a local car park and I have to admit to being taken in initially and on closer inspection thought that Bentley had left the design to the office boy.

Yep, the bloke on wife-swap seems to fit that profile rather well

[M'coli]

There's at least one hearse badged up as such around Leeds.

^ ZOMGZZZZ why why, fucking why?! Guessing the 'Ferrari' is an MR2. Whats the 'lambo'?

[scaryoldcortina]

Another MR2?

[Negative Creep]

Looks like an MGF to me

 

 

I'd love to go up to one of those people and tell them how much I like their Chrysler

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I think its an MGF as well.

 

'The bastard head gasket's gone on my Ferarri again'

[scaryoldcortina]

You are probably both right. I was basing my opinion on them both being yellow.

 

I think I'll stick maserati badges to my scorpio tomorrow, see if anyone falls for it.

[Quintus]

It's a Pontiac Solstice apparently. It was the very first image that Google found when I searched for 'Shit Replica Cars'. As with all shit replicas, it has a considerably smaller engine than the real thing.

The Pontiac Solstice looks awesome though. If anyone has actually done that - Ultimate Fail.

Made my day that. I'd just love to see the face on the RAC when the headgasket died at the side of the road.

'You're in a yellow Ferrari you say?'

Yet oddly most of the other image results look pretty smart

My mate Paul has stuck those stupid badges on his 300. ISTR that the designer of the 300 said he used the Rover P5 for his inspiration.

[autofive]

this one just sold on ebay for 9k - so someone fell for it

Dump him as a friend then stand there pointing and laughing every time he gets in his car

BENTLEY CONVERSION? Where's the Bentley bits then? Air in the tyres? Oil nicked from a Rolls-Royce dealer? Fuses from a Silver Shadow? For fuck's sake.

[Guest]

The guy who drives that is probably called Bent Lee. He's not like a bank robber or anything, but he's always doing slightly dubious-sounding things - phone unlocking, radio decoding, etc. Likes to carve himself out as a bit of a geezer and makes out that he knows all the local characters, even some who are clearly made up - "Stabber Sid", etc. Leaves the pub before closing time, loudly saying that he's got some business to take care of (to anyone who cares enough to listen), but in reality he just drives his nobbed-up Chrysler around the ring road a few times, then goes home and watches a DVD film with Danny Dyer in it. Dead at 40.

[morris_ital_lover]

Mr Bol and Hirst are on form here .

 

As for the Twatley, you'd have to be a proper bellend to think it would fool anything other than an overweight 20 something that had dropped out of uni for some unknown reason and whose only true freind was food, on a saturday night out when she was so inebriated she could barely see (let alone remember although she has been accidentally rohypnoled).

 

Oh and what a waste of a pontiac solstice, someone who worked at my school before I left had and everyone though she was worth mega money basically because it was rare an unusual, IMHO they do look good and alot better than than monstrosity.

The type of bellend who drives a Twatley is the type of person who would hang of the Union Jack on the Cenotaph in Whitehall.

[Albert Ross]

With a bog seat round his neck, singing "Vindaloo", going on about patriotism, driving his German designed, American built motor, his Japanese watch dangling off his sunbed-browned arm, sweaty beer belly overhanging his 3/4 shorts and flip flops..... no shirt of course, fake sunglasses on his head. etc.

I say old boy, that's a bit strong. That son-of-rockstar Cahrlie Gilmour probably has an Audi TT. Given the slagging he got last night on 5Live, he probably wishes he was on The Dark Side Of The Moon right now.

 

He said he "didn't realise it was the Cenotaph"

 

He's at Cambridge. Studying History.

 

What a fucking nob.

[pompei]

Anyone know where I can buy some Hummer badges for the Fronterror?
