First up one everyone agrees on:

Its easy to define council.

Picture a BIG country house with big gates and and E30 parked by the door next to an Aston.
Now , Does it 1) belong to the Aston owner as he has a soft spot for E30s? Or 2) is it his cleaner or maybe his daughters chav boyfreind?

If you saw Fi's, mine or ghekos you would assume no 2.

If it was BSS's car simon 13's 2 door or ratch's I.S you would assume no 1.

What im getting at is only OEM is posh, question is- are you shagging a milionairs daughter?
