Warning: That New Skoda Is No Good

Sagaris

They binned it! Apparently it took several days to make and was under hot studio lights for all that time, and therefore unfit for human consumption by the time it was finished.

From the BBC News website:

And the remaining question - what happened to the cake? Barker says they looked at donating it to charity, but by the time the cake had been in the studio and under the lights during construction it was not thought fit for human consumption. It ended up in a compost heap - though the chocolate speedometer and marzipan wing mirrors were, reportedly, kept for posterity.

They binned it all. The hot studio lights, technicians touching it and so on meant no-one could eat it without getting a tummy bug.

Crumbs - what a waste !

I heard some bad guys stole it and went joy riding in it. After they finished, instead of torching it - they candled it! :eek:

Have a look on the BRISKODA forums - lots of info there: http://www.briskoda.net/forums/ Don't tell them you're embarrassed though, they all love their Skodas on there!
