    I seem to recall that Pirelli did very well from this sort of advertising.

    I hope the parts are more genuine than the models assets appear!

    Anyone remember the UK guy that listed his motorbike by making his scantily clad girlfriend pose draped all over it?

    It has probably got a face like a bag of smashed crabs.

    Nice body though.

    (Yes, I am aware that there are more than one model)

    Didn't think Ebay allowed this sort of thing!

    It shouldn't be if it is.

    Imagine if everyone did this, it'd be ridiculous.

    It's not inventive at all.

    Fine !!!, though.
