![White Nio ET5 EV with licence plate "EL0NCLUB" and teslicka\.cz (luxury Tesla rental business) sticker. Pieces of paper under either windshield say: "Elon Musk je nácek. Styďte se!" and B.

Oh well, maybe it's just a car that was bought or ordered before he went utterly insane...
looks at plate
Ah, okay. Well-deserved then.

It's not even a Tesla, I think it's a Nio ET5. Still, "Teslička" is an affectionate term meaning basically "dear little Tesla" and the company rents out EVs for events.
The car is not even a Tesla, but the guy goes out of his way to ensure everyone knows he’s a fan… Why would you even do that? To show that you like some corporation, or to show off that you like nazi stuff? At this point it’s mostly sad.
Teslička.cz is a Tesla-first EVs-for-hire company. In Czechia, it's easy to get a custom licence plate transferred between cars one owns (but not between people). I think the company just gets it put on the newest car they have available, which now happenns to be a Nio. (They might be doing this swapping with two plates, I saw a TESL1CKA in their promo photos.)
Damage to the car would be covered by insurance or the rental contract. To hurt both the hirer and the company a lot, one could steal the plates. The hirer would need a tow and the company CZK 10000 for another set, and could not get them reissued. TE5LICKA and EL0NCLU8 are available but not the same, and they will run out of letter substitutions if it happens repeatedly (7E5L1CKA and 3L0NCLU8 are already stretching it). Anyway, beware of cameras in the car and the streets, and make sure the plates are not recovered in time. Throwing them into the sewage is not a good strategy, for example.
Volkswagen or gtfo
I wonder how the mod @fordfisher@feddit.org feels about that
No feelings. I don't discuss politics 😶
I'm talking about your username, which seems to imply car brand feelings
Oh, that's a common misunderstanding.
So you enjoy fishing by wading through shallow parts of rivers? That's way cooler than a car brand reference
