    There used to be competition threads here - about time they came back. The winner puts up the next pic (anything motors related).

    OK what was this before someone decided to mod it?

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    To do that to a Boxster would be cruel unless you are dripping in money.

    Out on a limb here, but the background in that first photo has a distinctly Eastern block feel to it, so I'm going to say .... a Trabant !!!!
    Or maybe something else like a Skoda, maybe? I'm guessing it's rear engined going by the weird proportions of the body.

    On closer examination, possibly nothing obvious!
