Car Art

The BMW Art Car (on the right)

The BMW Art Car was a piece created by Jeremy, Richard, and James for their exhibition at the Mima Gallery. Their idea was to paint what was inside the car on the outside. Jeremy however, took this too far painting a horse's head on the boot lid saying 'how do you know there isn't a horse's head in the boot?'. Later en route to the gallery Jeremy crashed the art car. The excuse he gave was that there was a 'bus full of school children'. Police were on the scene and asked Jeremy for a sample of his breath (to check for alcohol). They still used the damaged car in the exhibition however. The art challenge was featured during the 5th episode of the 14th series of Top Gear.
