They both had an identical set, so I'm guessing they are "gifted" them to give them a fair chance. Mum was convinced they came out of one of the Milk Floats.

one of the rules is that they are always given "fuel" be it petrol,diesel, batteries or even Nitrous Oxide.


It was a great episode, maybe if we all converted out 4x4s to battery power it would keep the environmentalists happy.  Because we all know the electricity used in electric cars is cleanly produced by harnessing the energy of mating bunnies, no fossil fuels used at all.....

Maybe I was wrong but at the time I thought if someone had two of them there was a good chance they knew what they were and  and what they cost, so were most likely useless  :?:

should I have grabbed them ??  maybe  :?

Oh POO you got me thinking now  :x
