Passed the tyre depot at the end of my street on my way home from work this lunchtime & spotted this in there. A local guy's just bought it apparently. A Hummer. 100 grand's worth. Same value as my flat & about the same size. New 22" tyres are 300 quid each. So much money, so little taste.  |

100 grand!  They saw him coming! Ive seen them for about 45k new, but that probably doesnt include the million bull bars, side steps and wannabe gangsta rims. And dont the 22" rims look little on that. I think Id be embarrased to drive that!  |

Maybe he could rent it out for school outings.
Tazzie & I passed a stretch limo Hummer last week.
I'd honestly rather drive my little Fiesta. I could probably fit it inside that Hummer.

You could have a scalextric set up inside the hummer, that would make it cooler! |

Engine size 6.0L V8 325 BHP and a smaller engine 3.5L Vortec engine 220 BHP. One interesting feature they are equiped with, to raise or lower the tyre pressure while on the move.
