Covering a car in grass and driving it to Monte Carlo in a "Monte Carlo or bust " race is fantastic publicity for Stanley. It's a great idea. Can't wait to see the car.

Well, we know it's not the Eurovision song contest, that was last month. Although our boys could have beaten Bonny Tyler, for sure.

Given there's no way to avoid France, maybe you could bring back a few more like Linganzi and Boco.
