Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Can you land a BOEING 747 at the airport in Le Mans?   ;)

I can just imagine the face of the checkout person in the supermarket when you try to buy 105,400Kg of beer for the trip home!  ;D

Actually I fancy the BMW M1 (quickish), I remember them limping around the circuit in the 80's going into the pits during the night and coming out near the end, last couple of laps if I remember, the problem is I dont know whether they would be up to carrying s**t loads of beer back!!! I think the 747 wins on that one.

That listing must mean that Big TW has finally been stiffed by the administrators trying to make some sense of the enormous financial hole he dug himself into with Arrows. If it was me i'd be quite miffed at losing such a collection of cars. I'd be interested to know what they go for at auction, a wee bob or 2 i should think. Hmmm.

Mmm, 747 or Focus RS Turbo?

Roundabouts in the 747 are tempting, but a blast in the RS.

747 is not able to land on le Mans airport...

... only DC3 or Hercule C130 !!!

No one is a pilot of Her Majesty and could organise a trip in a military plane. no need to land, your passengers will jump in parachute, like in 44 !!!!  :D
