Just spotted this on Ebay & it made me laugh.

Should probably go in the for sale section, but I thought there'd be more people would take a look here for than would want to buy a 740 :-) as most might not venture into the 700 f/s section of the forum.

Well I quite like it!

No worse than some of the Barry Boy racers who cover their Corsa in superglue and drive through Halfords!!!!

Repost - Its been on here already this week I think

Funny old thing aint it, the only way that car could be imrpoved is remove all the engine and running gear that might be of use and then add a can of petrol and a match, with all that crap on it it'll burn for a while lol

Hi,

Make sure the current owners are in the car before you add the match, won't you...
Death by fires too good for them..

Er,

This worries me, but I quite like it. Kids were certainly creative ... this kind of thing is pretty hard to do! Should see the trouble Andy Warhol went to painting a BMW M-1!

Cheers,

Anthony.

i dont think the school realised that by parting it out , they could have made money to help there ailing budget - might have taught the kids a thing or two at the same time .

leave the art to paper on walls .
