OH MY GOD!!! Go onto his Carsales ad (there is a link under the photo) and check out the photo of the engine bay, I've been laughing for the last 5 minutes.

Not because he wants 20k for a riced up Commodore, but because the engine bay looks like a McDonalds kiddie playground! Seriously, its all blue and yellow!

Got to love the "If I can unbolt it, I'm paintin it" mentality.

EDIT: There is a Bad Boy sticker on the fan shroud!!

Dont forget the neon lights under the rear bumper (and most likely under the whole car), the cool stickers, the eyebrows on the headlights and mystery unlabelled bundle of 4 swithes on the right of the steering wheel.

Its all in the detail gentlemen...

If you took the last zero off the asking price, then it'd be more reasonable.

Now this is what happens when you can’t count …

Half tonne ute … with over a 2 tonne load!


This was taken last week on Old Northern Road Albany Creek, but not sure who by. It has about 2 tonnes of concrete blend and 200kg bags of cement in the back.

Assorted parking fails.




EDIT: One more (I can't work out how the driver managed this).

I can see where Ford Australia got the idea from for the XF tail lights too.
