That story seems a little hard to believe, but it's in the Sun so I guess it's true.

What's a "car loon?"

And how does one "soup up" and Escort? Chunky or Creamy?

I call B.S. At no point in history has anyone considered a Ford Escort a 'prized' anything.

Could be an RS Cosworth version. Highly doubt it though.

Ok so tell me, have you been living under a rock the past 10 years or are you one of those brain dead sports fans that thinks Football is the only thing in life? Do tell

no, actually - SOME of us have lives outside of imaginary-land. And believe it or not, some of us don't dress up like comic book or movie characters, either. we have lives and only post on fark when we have down time - not when we run out of cheetos and pony-pr0n.

I do believe that some of you don't dress up like comic characters and don't only post on Fark when you run out of cheetos and pony-pr0n. I believe those people exist, I just don't believe you are one of them.

This happened in Poland. If they can invent the screen door submarine, anything can happen.

But in this case it's actually integral to the story as opposed to padding a terrible book for children out another 50 pages.

Fair enough, but the Cosworth is about as close to the Escort in the article as this

is to a bobcat.

/ my OP was just hyperbole anyway. I went to high school with a kid that had a '93 Escort he was quite fond of
// he was an odd one

Yes, because knowing about a character in the best-selling book series in history qualifies one as a cheeto-eating furry. Alright there, Mr. Studman, you're just too cool for the rest of us.

Harry Potter isn't a nerd thing, it's a little kid thing. IF you are an adult male and like harry potter movie you are probably a pedophile.

It was in Poland. Anything above a Lada is a luxury vehicle. A "souped up Escort" means it has Fuzzy dice BTW.

My only question is are they going to come good for damage done to it? There is zero way to hoist a car up and down from a perch like that without doing something negative to it. Screw the neighbours. I'd cut that tree down and pile the firewood around thier house......add match

Congrats on the most retarded statement of the day. You may now return to the rock you crawled out from under. 450 million books sold and you say its a pedophile thing.................... Dolt.........

Was on GMA also, so who knows?

Also, we have one of these racy idiots in my town. He speeds everywhere, including past the school just as the kids are leaving. His car has an awful paint job and is easy to recognize.

I think I will forward this story around town, see what people think...

It's a thought. Although if I see what I think I see, that thing that you may have done there, I'd have to get a job on a road crew, figure out when the right road was going to be resurfaced, do a bunch of math and stuff... probably more effort that sticking his car in a tree.

Right, I can see how you overlooked it. Harry Potter's only spawned 7 of the best selling books of all time, 8 blockbuster movies, endless mainstream parodies and imitations, a few ridiculously successful theme parks, and enough merchandising to fill Belgium.

For you, normal everyday popular culture is something that happens to other people, isn't it?
