Well if you look carefully, it says in the first paragraph that the
previous owner spent *£10*, not £10,000, that's much more realistic.
I can only assume that the later reference to £10,000 is a misprint.

Quite why they did that to the front I guess we'll never know. I'd
have thought a TD5 would fit without all that messing about.

Unsurprisingly it didn't meet the reserve!

I imagine Bristol might spend 10k on it so they can determine who made the
abortion and hand him his P45 unless of course it was the office cleaner. I
can't understand why it even got to that bid unless someone wanted the TD5.

I refer the honourable gentleman back to the "plinth = art" and my "curly
one on a paper plate complete with flag" thread. ;-)

There are some things that will never be aesthetically pleasing to
anyone but a nutcase, turds on plates, cans of **** and that Range
Rover are certainly examples of this!

It's got a 101 Rad Grill... (or close - the difference between a 101
grill and a piece of weldmesh is... about 50 quid...)

I actually saw the 'bricks' at the Tate and did rather like it -
something very "aesthetically pleasing" about it, but I can't really
say 'why'.

Why don't you buy it and try to rebuild the 101 from it ;-)

Back in my amateur photography days I won second place in a club
competition with a picture of some railings from a shopping centre,
seems silly when written like that, some things just have to be seen.

Cans of **** though, I think I'll pass!

Err, I mean I think I'll give them a miss!

Watneys made a mint selling cans of **** in the 70's I've redecorated many a
ceiling with the party 7s Tracy Emin is an amatuer by comparison.
