Wonder if they'll get any dodgy OS bids for this :)

A good enough reason to do anything.

I thought his wife made him take his lightning away though?

Why not get a bullet proof Merc to go with it? Only £3k and handy if the old road rage gets out of hand

Apparently, the Merc is for sale because the seller has a growing family and needs more boot space.

More boot space! Is he planning to house his family in the back of it?

Yep - same one, the original owner and the guy that bought it came to an out of court agreement last week. I think it is still with the original owner.

The guy that bought it discovered that it was going to cost about £20,000 to move it and that he also needed planning permission. He was also being charged rent as he didn't move it by the agreed date.


There used to be a path that allowed you to walk under one of the wings (I think its blocked of now - It was there a couple of years ago). It is not in a very good state, nothing has been done to it since it was put where it is currently standing. Still looks amazing when you drive past the airport entrance. I still remember the day when it flew in.
