Dumped Pumps

Was cycling around the inner city a while back (test riding some electric bikes) when i came across this sight:


Apparently it's some sort of petrol pump graveyard - where dozens of these things go when they are no longer new and shiny enough to adorn petrol stations.


One would hope that they get recycled into something useful, rather than just being left to rust in peace ;)

Ironic Ad


I guess no-one can sue them for false advertising. Although, really, any car can "stop traffic" - especially in peak hour when this was taken (during stopped traffic). It could only have been more ironic if the car in front of the bus was the same as the car being advertised.
