Mash Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 OK then Shite-spotters, here's your challenge should you choose to accept it. We appear to have sightings of 2 of the alleged 7 white Batmobile vans so keep your eyes peeled for the rest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mash Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 A quick bit of Googling reveals they are all over the place (especially the US surprise, surprise) in varying levels of over-the-top-ness! The purple one is the wackiest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogweasel Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I think these vans are GR8. The more ridiculous the better, they just remind me of the sort of thing I would draw when I was seven after watching 'Pole Position' or similar animated crud on telly. Ace. I bet if I rolled up at my lad's school in one all his small gap-tothed little friends would go batshit wanting to have a go in it. 99% of grown-ups seem to recoil in horror though, which is a shame I reckon.

Guest Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 There'll probably be more than 7 in the UK, I imagine it's more like 50 to be honest. Do a search for "vanning-zoku" and you'll find hundreds of the horrible things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXrescuer Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I won't be looking. The sight of one of those while at the wheel would probably have me puking all over my lap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j-j Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I thought this sort of stuff was called 'BOZO' or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredTransit Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 It's anima or animae, after the animated comic genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I found a few that was posted on the R-R Vannin' thread a few weeks back. And although this hasn't got the fins, It's equally as shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bones96 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 what is the point they might as well sell them to the barry boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 GR8 for getting stuck pretty much everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 They are an utter fucking eyesore! Anyway, theres a red one knocking about somewhere around Keighley that I've seen when I've been up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
