    Jesus, no. Looked it up and it said that it is a concept car that gets trotted round shows. Side profile is a like an older Bentley from the front screen back, i think they allowed the designer free reign on the front and probably shot him afterwards.

    The front is designed to look like a person that's just been told it's price.

    Don't think so. The Hongqi L5 has been on sale for a few years.

    Best guess... At some point Billy Bogan thought it would make it handle better / drive faster?

    Ironically Billy Bogan is responsible for both devaluing and increasing the value since those that survived his 'mods' back in the day are more rare and hence sought after.

    Here's to you Billy, you magnificent fucker!

    If I'm going to waste money I'll buy a Lexus LFA for the noise and a Hyundai H1 with driver for going to the pub.
