#073 - GM on life support, how long before the plug is pulled? What will happen to Corvette, Chevrolet and the rest of the General’s brands? Will Europe see the Volt? Sniff Petrol reveals two schemes for raising the cash GM needs, one involving Terry Wogan, the other 0898 numbers! We read your Speedmail, about GJOS in your dreams, Richard in a beard, A1GP cars in retirement, cars in Gulf colours, the price of Alfas in red, and what brands of cars appear in insurance adverts, suggestions for a new carface, and another reason to hate the ITV F1 idents. Plus odd music from Fake Thackray – The Vauxhall Casa Nova.

Fake Thackray - The Vauxhall CasaNova

I’ve always thought it a very good idea
To wash and clean your car
But to hoover it and polish it and wax it all day
Might be taking things too far.

It’s nice to look clean
But that could be obscene And not heard
of, it’s not a must
To stroke a car’s bonnet and rub up its bumpers
Is bordering on lust

Chorus
His roving eye, looks at wings not her thigh
The mind of a wild rover
The grip of a tyre
The look of love

He’s a Vauxhall Casa Nova
Oh they’re pretty and slick
And quicker than us
And many of them are fun, and
remember to care for them
What’eer you do
‘Coz a car is just like a woman

They need caressing and steering and warming up
Before they can perform
They get up to speed quicker
And they’re lots more fun
The more recently they were born


Chorus
His roving eye, looks wings not her thigh
The mind of a wild rover
The grip of a tyre
The look of love
That Vauxhall Casa Nova

His thoughts are much Corsa
His ideas are crude
He plays pocket snooker
With his balls and his cue

He’s not lusting for girls though
He sees their appeals
He’s not moved by their legs
Coz his fantasies all have wheels

Chorus
His roving eye, looks wings not her thigh
The mind of a wild rover
The grip of a tyre
The look of love
That Vauxhall Casa Nova

His roving eye, looks wings not her thigh
The mind of a wild rover
The grip of a tyre
The look of love
That Vauxhall Casa Nova

Oh cars are sexy, of that there’s no doubt
They have curves and backsides and fronts
We love them, and want them
And we’d sleep with them too, if only they had c#*%ts
