It would appear not.

Seems you don't have to be a barryboy with a Vauxall Belmont in order to create an automotive abomination. Behold:

:puke: Man City's Steve Ireland treated himself and the world to this piece of cr@p recently. I understand that he has subsequently repainted it. Question is, why didn't he leave it alone in the first place?

Edit: And oops, look what he used to drive:

Niiiice.

lmao :D

Have to say I'm constantly surprised by the amount of gopping crates knocking around by me... full on fast & furious lurid oranges & greens with angular body kits... & they think they look cool :no:

The 'Rocc is one of those of those rare cars that simply doesn't need modding in my opinion & has head-turning power & presence simply by being itself... cool, sexy & urbane... & with performance to match... it has it all :D I'm so in love lol :vibes:

It was in the Manchester Evening News the other night. Apprantly because of the ribbing he was getting about the red "United" paintwork he's had to have it re-done in blue.
Ah well - a fool and and his money .....etc.

No photoshop here I'm afraid - I first saw the R8 pic in the Manchester Evening News the other day. Apparently his team mates gave him so much stick about it looking like a man utd fan's car that he had it repainted so that the red bits were dark blue. It still looked like a turd though! The MEN referred to it as a "raspberry ripple" paintjob!

And I've just noticed that his Range Rover was an Overfinch too - Check the grill! What a criminal. :grumpy:
