David Cameron buys £1,500 used car for wife Samantha http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-36359921 Prime Minister David Cameron has bought a £1,500 used car as a "cheap run-around" for his wife, according to the salesman he bought it from. Showroom owner Iain Harris, 44, said he thought a call from the PM's security team saying he was interested in the compact car was a "wind-up". Mr Cameron paid £1,495 for the Nissan Micra in Minster Lovell, Oxfordshire, on Friday. He said the blue car was "just the right colour" for the Tory leader. Mr Harris said he first heard of Mr Cameron's interest in the car when he received a call to his office at Witney Used Car Centre, in the prime minister's constituency. "I thought it was one of my mates having a wind-up and I was going to be sat here for half an hour on my own doing nothing - especially when he said it was for a Nissan Micra." He explained that when he turned up for the appointment, Mr Cameron asked his security detail to stand behind the car to make sure the back brake lights worked. Mr Harris said he could not resist quipping that it was lucky the car was not red - the colour of the Labour Party. "Fortunately, it was just the right colour," he said. Mr Harris added: "It was a bit surreal, but likewise he was just a normal chap buying a car for his wife, a normal conversation, normal sort of deal and that was it." |

HARDDON: Guy, u can't quantify the competitiveness and fun MOU has brought to EPL. Hate him or love him, football should be enjoyed on and off the pitch. This defeat is definitely not the ideal definition of humiliation . Ask Arsenal fans! LOL |

As a chelsea fan, I enjoyed this defeat. MOU should visit the 'market', I insist, for a potent striker, creative mid fielder and central defender. Ivinovic has become a liability and Costa an immature emotional wreck. Oh JT my man, but we need to rest u once a while.... Thank you Man City. Peace 7 Likes |

ocelot2006: It's a pity some of them have never run or own a big corporation to understand the role of cultural diversity to the success of such. Honestly, I wish they have examples of any country or organization that has implemented Itomi's ideology of governance and succeeded. Check HP, Microsoft,toyota, etc all have Indians, Chinese, japanese,afrikans, britons, Americans etc in their employ. U are free to sight examples back home. There is no tribe in naija that is more endowed than others. It's is an insult to assume the best can come only from any particular 'village'. 1 Like |
