Went past a D3 on the M3 yesterday going south
As I approached I noticed it had a thin chrome strip all along the rear door. Hard to explain bit it was outlining the top half of the rear door
Then as I went past him I noticed it was all over the place and chromed capped mirrors
Not for me. Looked like a Chav mobile

This urge to spoil the classic lines of the Disco with "Bling" seems to be irresistible to some, but hopefully not many, here.
I saw an awful example on the M27 this morning, whilst stationary due to a surfeit of caravans going west.
It had oversize wheels apparently >20", which were chrome finished, chrome side steps, and the thin chrome strips as mentioned by GlosBoy.
It was towing a bling caravan, and both car & caravan were bedecked with stickers & aerials.
