Maybe its just me, but it doesnt look like the suspension is level
Mk4s look weird when you drop them because the rear wheels move forward at the same time, you can buy 'centering kits' that move them back into the center of the arches.
So do you think he/she has only dropped one side as it does look uneven or maybe his girlfriend is a pregnant hippo in which case fully understandable
Do you think it might be double side tape stuck onto the glass?
Can't see how else it could be mounted as the obvious place on the top sides of the rear wings has the lights?

TBH that age focus' do tend to attach a certain type of person. I couldn't work it either.So do you think he/she has only dropped one side as it does look uneven or maybe his girlfriend is a pregnant hippo in which case fully understandable
Google Maps told me "Object in road". Lo and behold there actually was an object in the road. Some chancer pushing his motorbike in the pouring rain on the M4. Narrow 50mph lane too. Incredible.
Terrible and dangerous situation to be in.
A) Leave the bike in the lane and get behind the barrier and wait for some time for a lane closure and recovery vehicle?
or
B) Push the bike as far over as possible?
He probably should have chosen option A but put a cone behind it.
Yeah. I think I'd have found the nearest widest gap between solid line and fence and either rested it against fence or put it on side stand there. A few cones maybe. And likely stood ahead of it flailing arms to warn people of the danger.
Pushing it with your back to live traffic is just insane.
Irony is that when this is actually smart there would still be no hard shoulder. He'd just be relying upon people to pay attention to red X (and operators to pay attention to situation and change the signals). Although I guess he'd have more room to ditch it in the verge and step to safety.

It's obviously just a handle for when he's done playing and needs to put it back in his toy box.

I just checked it's history, it's a diesel so unless it had some serious remapping it's just a lolworthy intake. It wasn't even on straight and I'm sure there were some pop rivets on show.
In todays episode of "exotic cars that Conscript saw but failed to photograph" - Rolls Royce Phantom and a Lamborghini Urus today. Like the Taycan, the Urus is the first time I've seen one personally.
Edit: Oh...and a DB11 this morning.

I see these literally every single day in Chelsea, it's ridiculous. It's honestly gotten to the point where something has to be truly special or ludicrous for me to snap it. Working on Kings Road will make anyone feel like a peasant :/

Oh I like that, want even! Haven't pulled faces like that for a while
Never seen one before. Old chap owns it, probably in his late 70s!
