Sorry, I was inferring that it is was a fake car, when I go quite a lot and have seen fake Mercs, VW's Audis and many more, will try and take pics when I go back its a laugh.

It was an attempt at humour

I was expecting LOTS of chrome from the withering comments thus far. Quite pleasantly surprised. I think it looks rather good, myself. Chrome, or the lack of it, is just automobile fashion. If you don't follow the herd, everyone points their fingers at you and laughs.

Interesting thing is that Chinese Octy is a 1.8TFSI, so I guess we'll get that engine here soon.
