    No colm's right, that's way worse than that. There's knock off 3 series', knock off X5's, Rolls Royces, you name it, it's been knocked off. And shamelessly.

    Remember that TG episode with the 'Mitsuoka Galu' / Rolls Royce?

    http://www.webridestv.com/videos/top-gear---mitsuoka-orochi---galu-111088

    Weird thing is, James May actually quite liked it and he's really into his Rolls'.

    When they were copying it they only had pictures of the back, so stopped at that.

    People who can't afford a better car and there are many millions of them. You have to remember we are extremely fortunate to be living in Europe. By the standards of the majority of the worlds population we are fantastically well off.
