Andrew Dwyer Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 A couple of weeks ago i parked next to a nice Pajero in white, what was strange was it clearly said PAJERO SPROT on the hood/bonnet in chrome lettering. At the time i did wonder if the owner was aware of the spelling mistake. Today, on the highway , i passed a Volvo s60 in a striking red colour, on the back in chrome lettering it clearly said VOLOV !! Both cars were new models ( IMO ) not some old bangers !! Has anyone seen any examples of this ? p.s. my long distance vision is good and I hadn’t been drinking ???? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenslegs Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Can't imagine that they came out of the factory like that, but it wouldn't surprise me if they had been for accident repairs and came out of the shop with misspellings. On Sukhumvit road, Pattaya I often passed a motorcycle shop (near to the junction with Soi Muslim) with vinyl flags outside bearing the brand name HODNA. Never thought to take a photo, but I will if it's still there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, that’s probably the only reasonable answer but it just seems crazy that the owner wouldn’t see the mistake and have it corrected . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Moonlover Posted March 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2020 There was a young Arab lived close to our place in Saudi Arabia with a red Mustang. (or something like that) and he'd had the well known phrase 'Born to be Wild' stuck across the rear. Unfortunately, whoever stuck the letters on placed the 'W' upside down. We always had a good giggle whenever we saw it. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yinn Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Maybe the “craze” fashion. This car sticker is very craze also (stupid IMO). It always say (translate) “This car is green car” (or different color) But it never true. Eg, nobody put “This car is green car” sticker on the green car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susco Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I remember seeing a Mercedes cabriolet at Boonthavorn, looked like a car on which some money was spent, and had a very special color as well. The only thing strange was that it had a BARBUS logo on the trunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
