Ok so after seeing the car pictured below it got me thinking. We all see some hideous things in our travels so whey not share with everyone.

So post YOUR pics of monstrosities you come across so we can all as the question WHY.

Absolutely NO google pics please YOU must of seen it in the flesh and taken the photo.

I'll kick it off with this lovely Jag.
