I don’t think having wheels would make any difference.

This 1986 billboard for Uniroyal tyres in the UK used the caption “Where would the police be without our tyres?”

Back at the station fitting Goodyears I presume.

 Top Gear has a new home on Channel NINE

Australian television viewers may have noticed the new series of  Top Gear has shifted from SBS to Channel NINE. To celebrate this, Channel NINE has erected billboards to remind dedicated viewers to tune in to the right channel.

In the former SBS 7:30 time slot now is Mythbusters.

What next to move to a commercial station then? Perhaps the very brave Bear Grylls, Man versus Wild will be heading to the deserts of Channel 7? God help us!

This billboard was spotted in Portland, Oregon USA.

The billboard belongs to used car dealer, Ron Tonkin Automotive who appears to be very passionate about his cars. Ron has replaced Cupids arrows with ignition keys, which lead to the catch phrase: “The car you love is just a click away“. Unfortunately, tonkin.com website seems to be down at the moment, so it’s a very lonely life.
