Its one of my biggest motoring pet hates......  wits that try and make their car appear "better" than it actually is ....to be fair you don't see it as much these days,but the above items reminded me of a de-badged 5-series I saw the other day....it was clearly a 520d (outside chance of being a 530) that some pr*ck had put M5 badges all over 
Don't understand who they are trying to impress......anyone who knows cars would know it wasn't an M5...and anyone who doesn't know cars wouldn't care..... 
Same with an Overfinch... "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...
Locking rear E-diff
RLD spare wheel protector & sump guard

D3 Java 2005 SE manual (sold,sadly,thanks for the memories)
1966 '88 Series 2a....still starts in the morning better than I do...

Cheapest of the cheap was the very very base model SE's.....
Which IMO were only made to keep some police services (they aren't forces are they now  ) happy with lower prices but were a bit light on toys inside.
The thing with ebay is that so many n0bs list stuff but its for a SSRR and you dont find out until you search the PN or they finally upload a pic that really gets on my goat, though not as many p38 and classic part sellers are as guilty of that it seems  FFRR Owner, very nearly became a D3 owner
Test piloted a new D4 XS SDV6.. Gone and being forgotten i hope!!
D4 HSE 10MY
D4 XS 11MY
