When I clicked on the link I fell off my chair when I saw the price! 

It did tie-in rather well with the advert at the bottom of the page: opportunity to win Laser Eye Surgery ... I think the seller needs to win that, soon!

That turret combined with a large water supply, a motor, pump, and gun shaped hose attachment could provide no end of fun

Could we get one of these as well, might as well have total fun.

And they can't complain at Le Mans, it is a french design

Rex more idea's

What about expanding your collection, looks like its already survived Le Mans in the past.

Hmmm.. Personally I think the mortar moped is better... has more stealth about it!!

[lady pig-pen]

i hate to tell you all but this IS the pope mobile, rex has done a few money making modifications, made himself a new fake ebay account and photographed it surrounded by some of his other "useful and worth money one day" things.......let the bidding commence!!!

[Lorry]

There's only 12 minutes left to grab the bargain.  There are no bids yet

What is a group of control towers called?

Air traffic controllers generally lead to collective nouns such as a "vector" or "pattern" in polite company, but "failed aircrew" in impolite circles.... Not sure on control towers, but perhaps given their lineage, a "bevy" of Bedfords or a "clutch" of Commers (the latter having particualr resonance from RAF Germany days).  While a great lover of classic machinery (and at the risk of being branded a heretic) from the point of view of sheer practicality , I am quite taken with the modern equivalent....

Mobile grandstands, what a wonderful idea. I wonder how much one of those would cost to hire for a weekend in June?
