MG Midget and Sprite Technical - French Driving School - with a difference (NMC)

In Le Mans after the classic weekend I saw this French driving school car. Some suggested it was advertising something else. Have a look!

Like it Rob and appropriate for the Technical thread as it's about performance :)

Must be us Northeners find this funny. No one else seems to.

But it seems to have accepted this.

For others look at the web address on the side of the car but try saying it with a Yorkshire accent

Ah - okay. Now I get it. Cheers.

When I stayed in a mate's flat in Dubai years ago I looked across the street in the morning and saw a driving school owned by "Mohammed Al-Karbash".

Well it made me grin!

Locally we have a driving school called "Defensive Driving" and they say that their teachers are all police officers. A couple of years ago I saw one of their cars on the motor way during rush hour on its roof. Hmmm. Not a big confidence builder.

I have also seen 'Impact School of Motoring'.

Deviating slightly but I love it when organisations create a name for themselves but don't consider (or maybe they do) the acronym e.g.
Frost Auto Restoration Techniques
or
St Helens Institute of Technology

Not to mention unfortunate website names.

There is a website which lists the agents and representatives of celebrities called www.whorepresents.com

They've had to make their logo in two separate colours, so it doesn't look like a site where you can buy gifts for hookers!

Haha... those are funny... but i fail the 1st ... probably a pond thing

Once saw an advert for a metal testing company called Analytical Technologies. For short they used the first four letters of each word which made it sound like they were in a different business.
Martin Washington

whorepresents LOL!
The people at that technology company need to get out more, Martin.
Bit like the site for buying pens - penisland, sure that's deliberate.
Wonder what the acroynym for The War Against Terror might be?
J Tickle

Prop. Just for you.
It's a play on words. It can be read as " for getting hard" and could be construed as an advert for the product called "agra" preceded by "vi". Can't put the whole word in because the auto censor throws it out.
