Gold Cygnet

[shunt]

Spotted this outside the Arlberg in Lech today, so much bad taste I'm embarrassed to be British!

[brakedwell]

Is it Matchbox or Corgi?

Was that some kind of metallic effect wrap?

Curse my eyes...

Having said that, I want a Cygnet but at £4k, not £40k. But in lightning silver or one of the nice light green shades...

Maybe done by the same tt who did this:

I hate to say it but I actually like that colour..... not saying i'd have it but it reminds me of something the teenagers of the 80's would have around ones neck.... would go very nicely with a baseball cap

WOW that is really bad!

I have seen that car in the flesh as it were, ghastly, utterly ghastly. It was for sale at something ridiculous like £80-90k as well for basic spec 2005 DB9. It isn;t even a good wrap.

The Cygnet I like. It's a fun car trying to be fun

It was on eBay a couple of weeks back for £65k I think. Still stupidly overpriced.

The gold on the Cygnet looks so bright and out of place, almost looks 'shopped

[Guycord]

It called over-embelishment.

Saw this on the M25 a while back...don't normally take photos whilst driving, but I was pretty shocked !!

I thought that but then spotted all the reflections... god knows how much someone payed to have that done.... they must have a massive laugh everytime they drive it..... defo not someone taking life to seriously...

THE picture that sums the Cygnet up.

[Jockman]

Wowee !!!

If you wanted to stand out from the crowd, then that's your baby

[shunt]

Not shopped, hurt my own eyes, there was a Mercedes off road experience going on outside the same hotel. Sad to see that parked next to some nice German metal.

[burntout]

Really.... What type of person does that to any car let alone an Aston..

The Cygnet can get away with it as its just a Toyota, but the chrome wrapp on the DB9??? I have seen a 911 in Weybridge done the same and that looked crap too.

I really like car wrapps but not in these colours...

[ShortTimers]

I think i've found the company that did the wrap

Looks like a 'factory' car to me from the Reg no. I think I am right in saying the good Dr. frequents The Arlberg (lovely place stayed there a couple of years ago)and also the AM Skis were 'launched ' at an event there too.

Precisely.
