Well I said it would be short. Need to make way for Graham. So time to judge on the black and yellow Honda. Yes folks someone went to all the trouble to try to make a Honda look like a Bugatti.

So third place goes to the Admiral for his entry “Taxi”

Second Place goes to Dg650004 for “Boogatti........suitable for Halloween.......” and

the winner is Dg650004 with “Fauxgatti”

No PM sent, you may not post another picture.

What can I say. I'm an old fart. Taxi means something auto related to me. Uber is new and it's meaning is still evolving. I know it's a ride sharing app but when I see the word the first meaning that come to mind in "very nice new thing", "the best" or "above all others"
So where's the new picture?
