I think all if not most Fiesta ST's have the viper stripes.

That still doesn't make it right

So why would BMW go to the trouble of disguising a car that is currently available to buy etc?

Disguised cars are pre-release models the manufacturers don't want anyone to see. Given that this car was disguised, it's a model we dont yet know about..

Spotted M25 J5 this morning, stuck in a nice traffic queue! Must have been costing a bit with the MPG they put out

The car might not have been disguised, I know a lot of manufacturers cover the cars from top to bottom in plastic to avoid damage whilst in transit.

2005 Mustang GT, absolutely beautiful cars.

But they dont normally then drive them, and if they do they don't take the scenic route

Looks a lot like a disguised car on test to me.

Besides, BMW's in transit from the factory are actually covered in a very thick layer of something I think is wax, gives the car a very matt appearance. It's then pressure-washed off at delivery.

I think these are nice cars, he gave it some stick too and I was impressed, the bloke looked like a pleb though
