Hell hath no fury...

This eBay item caught my eye - a £25,000 motor car (a rather spiffing Lotus Esprit) for 50p.

There is, inevitably, a hilarious backstory that has a particular resonance for me. I'm sure my wife would extract her revenge on me by trashing my cars (before progressing to my soft and squidgy bits).

• The preening wideboy standing by the car is a "shock jock" at a radio station called "Kerrang".
• The Lotus is (was) his pride and joy.
• He was interviewing one Jodie Marsh*
• Flirting outrageously on air, he declares that he'd leave his wife and children for her.

Only problem is that his wife is listening at home...

And he registered the car in her name...

Oh dear...

* Jodie (for those of you who don't live in the UK or are lucky enough to have not had her thrust down your throat by tabloid editors wishing to show quasi-pornographic photo's) is an ex-lapdancer, Z-list celebrity (for no obvious reason other than a propensity to display way too much flesh in public) and MAW (model/actress/whatever).

Enjoy...
