Cars with fake badges
« on: 06 November 2013, 23:04 »
Hey guys. Today I saw a Citroen Jumpy with a Volkswagen badge on the back and was wondering what is the funniest fake badging anyone has ever seen, or photographed? Unfortunately I didn't get a photo, but I have added some from Google searching it.

Saw an X5 where the owner had put a M badge on it.  Problem was it read 'MX5'!

Seen Smart cars with Merc badges on them as well.

That's because Aston gave them away free with cars  :smiley: or you could buy one for about 35000

Aston Martin 'built' that car in order to bring the average emissions of the cars they produced down, or to reduce their carbon footprint. Something like that anyway.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
