Fair enough and you really need to be a rev-head with a knowledge of V8 engines to get it but this is pure genius! That's a big block Chevy engine of probably 454 cubic inches masquerading as a small block Holden engine of 253 cubic inches that the car came with as standard, it might fool the Cops or it might not! It'd be like your wife saying you couldn't get a motorbike bigger than 175cc, then putting 125cc badges on the 1100cc bike you bought and hoping she didn't notice

I don't know what's more funny

Well she's not lady Diana, nor does she resemble Lady D and anyway LD wasn't driving and maybe the caption should have read something else. Just a silly attempt at a meme for memes sake.

not really.

the media are criticising markle, a one time b list actress and now the celebrated duchess of netflix, for becoming or attempting to portray herself in the public eye as a "peoples princess", to be pitied as a victim of the terrible racism, cruel persecution and crippling exclusion etc. purposely inflicted on her by every member of the royal family (except her simpering simpleton of a husband ) the cruel UK media and everyone else who fails to bow down to her magnificence, modesty and majesty, in other words an attention seeking diana redux, hence the meme.
