When I take cigarette breaks at work I tend to go lean on my car so I'm away from the doors and the customers' questions for 5 minutes.

Every so often someone (as just happened) comes up to ask me what car it is, often stating they've seen it sitting here and wondered what it is.

Of course I'm only too happy to bore the a*s off them telling them all about it, and usually they're quite excited to hear about it, especially when I tell them how if annoys most beemers.

It's nice that joe bloggs on the street can be as excited by the car sitting stationary by the kerb as I am driving it.

Who knows, maybe some of them might be tempted to look one up and join our fold.

It's fab isn't it?

I have been asked about mine a few times in the last 6months. 1 old guy who was almost 80 and was a retured raf pilot and a real petrol head kept me talking for ages and I couldn't get away and was late to meet my wife....

People always always look at the car when it passes

I think they are just the right blend of not being "in your face" but at the same time, look a little special to those who might know, and there are quite a few who dont know and genuinely curious.

They never seem to attract negative looks or comments.

Even when I got pulled for speeding, the cop had a good look at it and asked all about it.

Only negative comment I got was when I said its a Smart and the response was a disinterested "oh..."

I've kept mine sleeper ish. Fully debadged, with one little Bs on the calipers and tiny discrete brabus decals on the rear window and side sills to say anything about what it is.

[Big Dunc]

Mine is as it was when I bought it, no smart badges, but quite a few Brabus badges.  OK, I added a couple of them.

I still get the odd stare as mine is de-badged and stock but Alice has made one or two kiddies cry and run off screaming all because of one little badge... Decepticon rules!

[funkydoodycool]

Ahaha!  I was gonna get autobot badges on mine but.... well maybe I will

Quite funny on Friday when I was round a friends, a random child asked me if my car was a Transformer when i parked.

I've had a few people stare and talk about my car. Usually it's children pointing at the pretty stars.

I have had a lady come up to me in a petrol station saying how lovely my car was.

I have also had a few people point and talk when I used to work in Knightsbridge. Although it's possible that they were pointing at it because most cars in Knightsbridge cost over 100k.

I ordered some Autobot stickers.  Come in sets of 4 - 2 Autobot and 2 decepticons, and I got 2 sizes, so if you need any spare Decepticon ones let me know (in blue)

This weekend a man and his wife stopped and chatted to me about my car saying how nice it looked and then my wife's step brother commented that his son (24yr old) is obsessed with my car and wants it when I have done with it ........ Both put a smile on my face!!
