Fantastic. Whilst on the subject off car ads, we came across a copy of Practical Classics from 2007 at work the other day and in the adverts was this. Its the full page first and the ad second. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Can't be real... Aston Martin surey wouldn't stoop to such sexist sh*t as this, neither would they produce an advert with such a glaring typo in it. You have been had...

It is indeed fake and uses the same tag line as a BMW advert from 2008 for their used cars. AML's lawyers have been sending out threats to places to take the advert down.

You know I've stared at this time and again and I can't see any typo, probably because I can't take my eyes of her lady bottom.

Hmmm, you're right. A second look on FB at the posting shows it is not directly from Aston Martin. Sexist yes, but nice pic all the same....

Is there a reference to Aston Martin there? I didn't get that far.

Took me almost all day, but once I stopped looking at her calves, I finally picked up on the word owned missing an n.

Jimmy Savilles Paedomobile was for sale again recently. Just had a mega bucks restoration. The dealer ended up getting death threats. It's currently being stripped of its carawagon conversion kit, getting a colour change and the DVLA have issued different registration number.

Oh right, I'd assumed it was bought on finance!

A bit like the model then...
