Morning all,

Phew, I think I need to sit in a darkened room for a while after seeing this "creation".

I mean, what were they thinking of? and as for the soft-top roof arrangement, words fail me ...

Absolutely hideous. It should be a criminal offence to do that to a car.

I can't come to their defence, but being in LA then the "cover thing" wouldn't be seen much. As for the design, well just like wall paper, different things appeal to different people.

But I have to ask, back seat passengers don't have much of a view.

According to my understanding of the advert, the car is in (potentially wet) Dusseldorf; I also see that the car is unregistered (perhaps because it cannot meet to stringent German test for historic cars?)...
