Marketing Genius right there.

"No, not me. There's a jet-powered bus. I don't need drugs."

- It's pretty loud

- It's knacker crumplingly quick

- It kicks huge flames out the back

- It's got an impressive bhp/tonne, but it drinks like george best drowning in a vat of his favourite tipple

- It's got a bit of a lairy paintjob which if it were on anything else it would raise questions about the owners sexuality, but on this it looks pretty fun and entirely, well almost entirely hetrosexual

- It's knocked together in a shed by someone with little in the way of professional training

- It's made with all sorts of bits found by digging around in scrap yards, parts bins and so on

- I'd quite like to own it despite it being utterly ridiculous, a bit garish, and way over the top



I conclude that it must be a TVR.

So dreaming up a jet-powered school bus and drugs couldn't be linked? To me it sounds like the sort of thing you come up with a couple of spliffs down, shortly before suggesting that pancakes should be triangular and that ducks should be fitted with water wings.
