How upsetting is it to see this on a Mercedes?

It's upsetting to see them on any vehicle or house for that matter! I'm in a permanent state of 'cringe' at the moment :crazy: May it all end sooner rather than later.

Bah humbug ;)
 
I've seen a few on Vitos & Sprinters ;)
 
I saw one on an old shape M Class and a a W202... :crazy:

Even more dissapointed as I think that's my old W202 from a few years back! :crazy:

number plate ending in JRV?
 
He could have at least bought the OEM flag holders, even if they are about £200 each...

would look ok on the front wings of an S Class!

In my opionon flags full stop look "naff" on cars/houses...

Embassay cars look just as bad...

i've seen a A class with flags a W202 with flags but the most stupid one was a Lexus LS400 with flags and the back window covered with a flag. How embarassing is that!
 
Hi,

Whilst I agree these flags look 'naff' they do appear to reflect an element of patriotism, so I don't see why (some) Merc owners (snobs ;) ) should consider themselves above such open shows (of patriotism).

My only regret is that this will be short lived :eek: i.e. our highly paid (potential) Merc owning footie superstars won't perform (again). I hope I'm wrong.

I hasten to add that neither my house nor car is festooned with these emblems but I am not against others expressing themselves :D .

Cheers,

Dieter

Sorry to appear cynical (or at least more than usual :) ) but I'm not sure that most of the flag wavers could spell patriotism let alone know what the word means. :devil:

Obviously if the patient female then its Matriotism.
