Worst Liveries Of All Time

[Pupik]

I make sure to keep Jaegermeister in my stomach: First in, stays in; if last in, then first out.

 

[Sleek Stratos]

'in your face'?

Whenever I drink Jägermeister it usually ends up 'in your sink' and 'in your toilet' and 'in my hair'.

Here's another doozie, Toyota 86. Look at it carefully... you are feeling sleepy, veeery sleepy.

This Cayman makes me wanna go "YEAH BABY!"

How to Ruin an Awesome Historic Livery, Lesson 1.

Are you criticizing me for taking it lightly? Or the fact someone painted a Cayman with it? 'Cause the 1970 917 that was painted in that scheme was nicknamed the hippie car, even back then, so making a hippie reference today hardly seems callous.

I think he was bemoaning the fact that such a classic livery was applied to such a dull car.

That treatment is applied to lots of different cars, pre-release. It makes it hard to photograph the finer details.

This. Nothing against you

 

[MatskiMonk]

Looks worse here.

Let's leave it in the 80's.

Is that the B186? I've got a 1:18th of that, but it doesn't have the wicked-cool tyres, yo!

I feel cheated...

Paint.

 

[Tired Tyres]

If it is a B186, and it is, then that's an early Pirelli sidewall experiment gone wrong.

It is a B186 and we talked about it on the previous page. It was Benetton's first car and they really wanted to use colour to show that they're a fashion company.

I still like the painted sidewalls. Livery is a bit meh.

 

[Bopop4]

I see nothing wrong with that Cayman.
This on the other hand...

The neon yellow at the front just kills it.

 

[F1 fan]

The neon yellow at the front just kills it.

It does a bit, but I wouldn't list it as a potential candidate for worst Livery.

 

[Bopop4]

No, but it still doesn't look very nice.

 

[Cowboys965]

I like it.

Could be one of those little things they add to be able to tell the cars apart.

 

[Sleek Stratos]

Ok, just wondering.

Well at least I'm glad it was a replica Stratos... r-right?

 

[Cowboys965]

Ok, just wondering.

This is a replica Stratos, right?... RIGHT?

Just... Why?!

 

[Tom]

Hot Wheels just makes it look a bit bleugh, not the worst, but better in it's original form.

*Hot Wheels MG*

*White Stripe RAC*

No thank you. Get them away, away dammit!

 

[Danny]

Could be worse. They could have plastered the logo of 3 bland concubines on at every opportun...

OH NO!

OH NO!

My eyes!

 

[Liquid]

Benetton weren't good at sponsoring cars.

Alfa Romeo.

Toleman.

It's to help with distinguishing which car was which as there were 3 of them.

#3 had red around the front inlets.
#21 had no extra color added to the front.
#23, as seen above, had the yellow striping on the front bumper.

 

[Bopop4]

Yeah, but they could've done something different.
Like changing one of the stripe colours or something.
And what's wrong with the Atomic Kitten?

The stripe colours are those of Martini - they aren't going to change the sponsors colours!

With regard to the Atomic Kitten car, everything is wrong.

 

[Bopop4]

Maybe a black or white ring where the yellow is but around the entire car?
I still don't see what is wrong with that MG, (which I initially thought was a BMW lol) it's a nice, simple, black and yellow.

They need to be able to spot the difference easily in dark, rain, 200MPH. It looks fine. I don't see where you're going with this.

 

[nitrorocks]

That's a good looking car. One of the greats.

I'm not going anywhere with it, just throwing out some ideas about how they could solve their little problem with more style.
