Dan Trent writes:An email has just arrived titled "Peugeot has Ann Summers Party Organisers purring with delight" - dare I follow the ‘click here for an image’ link while at my desk?
Phew, thankfully an innocent shot of lady in a nice frock posing with a Peugeot 207CC, Ann Summers products discreetly out of […]

Nissan Cube: on the rocks
cj hubbard writes:
This Nissan Cube is cool. Not in the sense that pr people and marketing folks keep telling us that it’s cool – what with its world wide cult following, or whatever. But because it’s actually been completely encased in ice. An ‘ice Cube’ if you like – and the pr people certainly […]

Uh-oh – brown envelope time…
cj hubbard writes:
As motorists we’re all the same, don’t deny it. As the postie retreats and you glance at the morning’s Royal Mail goodies, what’s the one thing you don’t want to see?
Now as this arrived at the office address, don’t be fooled by Peter’s name being on the top – it could have been […]

SEAT’s questionable love machinery
cj hubbard writes:
It’s quite likely you’ve seen the advert indicated by the image above. But do you think SEAT’s marketing bods have really thought this through?

cj hubbard writes:
And you thought the Porsche Panamera couldn’t look any more, er, challenging? Not us, obviously. But you. Possibly.

Another of those I’m not sure how I missed it when it was first released kind of deals. Yeah, surfer dude. Right on.

Workout while you wax…?
cj hubbard writes:
Oh please.
Press release arrives today from Turtle Wax entitled: “Wax your way to a weenie waste”. Can they be serious?

So Elle, is it Jag or Fiat?
Dan Trent writes:Elle MacPherson’s been getting about a bit of late. Car-wise, I mean.

From the sublime to the ridiculous
cj hubbard writes:
The sublime part is the new Volkswagen Golf GTD. I didn’t get a chance to try it, but it looked beautiful with that GTI front bumper, and Dan and Richard won’t. Stop. Going. On. About. It.

Well, […]

Love SEAT
cj hubbard writes:
I think this is probably taking car enthusiasm a little too far.
Stephanie Garner and Peter Janes, a couple from Gartner near Watford, are apparently so in love with their SEAT Leon as well as each other it became a key participant in their recent wedding.
