Slow trundle to work today on a foggy M4. In the next lane for much of the way was - with apologies to Lygo, who likes the shape even less than I do - a Mercedes CLA. Specifically, a white one. More specifically, a dirty white one.
And there was the problem. Of course, every car is dirty at this time of year but, for reasons presumably to do with aerodynamics and surface tension, this car was reasonably white ahead of the rear wheels, but encrusted with grey-brown muck all over the bumper and rear panel. It looked, in other words, as if it had pooed its pants. Stylish.

Number plate visible? If not then maybe deliberate?
I was alongside a car locally on Sunday - it jumped the lights and cut across to the other lane. Revving the engine.... number plate not visible. Sped off along a residential street at I'd say 50mph.
So maybe they'll want a CLA next. I think they're okay. But then I had a Passat CC.

I remember it was a 15, so it must have been at least partially visible. It didn't look intentional; you really wouldn't make your car look that bad on purpose.
I quite like the styling of the CC. Not the CLA, though.
