are you sure the sewing machine engines on that plane could maintain 80mph with that tank slung underneath....or is Red-Bull actually Janx, and gives much better performance then you would expect? Just ask the residents Hemel Hempstead!

<grrr>

you seem to misunderstand... the car stays on the ground, but needs to be moving at 80mph in order for the plane to take off from the roof.

it also needs to be moving at around the same speed for the plane to land again.

Aaah....there was me thinking that it was a really clever (if rediculous) way of avoiding traffic jams.

well...that seems pretty pointless to me. Buy a crap car worth only a few quid and then spend the rest of the money you should have spent on something better to make it look stupid! <suicide>

Visit www.barryboys.co.uk for even more of them!

but yeah. for the price they pay for them, they could afford a nice Lotus 7 type sports car (flat packed for easy home assembly).

arguably more satisfying building car from the ground up, and it looks cool to boot.

Why do people always spend loads of money doing up a crap car??

Why not just buy a good car to start off with and save yourself the time

Followed a Corsa yesterday with a plastic skirt on the back. The standard 1/2inch bore exhaust pipe had melted a section of it.

Why, oh why, oh why do they do it?

Just seen trundling down the street here.... a greeny blue Honda Civic 1.3 with one bean can either side at the rear, complete with green neons underneath, followed by a similarly crappy blue Corsa with single bean can exhaust and blue neons underneath.... now the people in the street laughed... lol
