This is so bang-on Fagey!  I seem to remember one motor-racing journalist referring to the Probe as the Ford Penis.
Is this the thing with guys and long lenses too? ::)

Bit like my avatar that one, might have to change it...
Good idea, never been quite sure about the "Wife Beater" thing - assume you're not one? - Don't answer that!

Don't worry, I'm not.

Now then, how do you post pictures?

Great thread guys, but if you're going to do a top 10 I reckon you have at least 2 categories here. Those Spitfire ads (believe it or not) actually were used - my ex-local pub in handcross had the full complement of beer coasters as well as posters above the bar (I've even seen one or two t-shirts floating around). This was around 2 years ago, and my favourite (not pictured above) is the one of Winston Churchill doing his V sign as if ordering 2 pints. Dead right btw, it is lovely beer!

So you have 2, maybe 3 categories for top tens:

Ads they dare not run
Ads they should not run, but did,
and maybe Ads that have 'improved' by a bored/disgruntled third party...

Well, you're right and your wrong, Steve.  Johnnie's in the Drink and Schlossers Wagners et al didn't appear although Victoria Cross certainly did.

I sure as hell miss the beer - a regular tipple for Saturday nights in the Peacock.

No comment re the above, I think!
Sheps also do a beach towel, bright red with the Spitfire logo and the words
"Have the Sunbeds, We're going to the Bar".  I don't work for them, honest, just love that!
