I find this shit fucking fascinating! :nerd_face:

A Chinese electric car that looks like an identical copy of a classic British Mini Cooper is on sale for 10 times cheaper.

Clearly the clowns at the Express don’t know the meaning of identical.

Oh god :man_facepalming:

“Identicalish copy” :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Ffs don’t do it. Horrible, slow rattly shit boxen with plastic gearboxes, overheating engines and they rust oh god do they rust.
Unless of course you enjoy the old nettle frotage and mlle strops’ sweet caress, then? Sure, indulge your masochisic ways.

Trendsetting X5 with the ‘smaller front wheels’ mod.

Now that’s a vibe. It’s always wild to me when you see cars with mismatched alloys. Very much in the “choices were made” category.

Saw the new Ford Capri in the flesh for the first time today.

It’s huge and it’s hideous. Capri my arse.

In the ugly car parade ring I don’t think it’s one of the true horrors, but it sure as fck ain’t a Capri. They also fucked up the remake of the Puma. The new one wasn’t a horrorshow, but it wasn’t anything like a puma. They need to stop designing new cars and sticking old badges on them in the hope of a few extra thousand nostalgia sales. It devalues them.
Many cockpunches to Henry T and his lot. Spectacularly bad marketing. Who the fck aspires to drive a ford now? I’d have stabbed my gran in the neck for a xr2, xr3 or my grandad as well for an RS Turbo when I was in my teens. Zee Germans got it right with the smaller classes.

It also feels remarkably similar in size and shape to the E-Mach Mustang (another abominable use of a historic name).

And yes, quite an ugly vehicle, although it’s no Fiat Multipla.

It may be ugly but it is quirky and has a certain charm. The Capri, and as you say, the Mustang both lack any redeeming features in terms of visual appeal.
