See plenty of cars with the "Proudly supported by Centrelink" stickers on the back. Even a fair few late model Fords & Holdens.

I can't actually understand how this can happen...

can someone please even attempt to describe how it could get up there - without major damage (ie: hitting the telegraph pole??)

Not really sure where the fail is there, let alone epic?

Sure the rims are a tad too shiny, but the owner clearly takes good care of a classic British sports coupe. There's not enough of that going around these days.

Yeah its not epic, and probably doesnt belong in this thread.
But, the crowd this was in at the time, all classic and original MGs, Jags, Rovers, Minis, Triumphs etc etc etc, this thing stood out like a sore thumb.

They've run the car up the Guywire (wire that keeps the pole straight) and onto the main line. it's not something you could accomplish on purpose.
