About a hundred miles from Dublin, in the middle of nowhere, he breaks down (nothing new there BMW), he walks into the nearest village for help. Approaching the first person he sees he says 'Is there a garage round here?' 'No', replies the local, 'nearest one is 50 miles away' 'Any taxis or hire cars' asks the salesman 'No, nothing like that round here, but FitzPatrick up the road sometimes has a few old cars in his field' replies the local 'He might be able to help you' So the salesman walks up to FitzPatricks farm, upon arrival he asks if he has any cars for sale or hire? 'Sorry' replies FitzPatrick 'but if you want it you can have that' and he points to a rickety old Wild West stagecoach 'I suppose so' says the salesman 'Do you have any horses to pull it?' 'Sorry' replies FitzPatrick 'ate them all last winter, but Seamus on the next farm grows these giant pullets, he might sell you a few' With great misgivings he approaches Seamus's farm, but lo and behold it's full of giant pullets, which Seamus says are 67 bhp each, so he buys 6. He hitches them up and gets out on the road, the stagecoach is flying along, on a straight stretch he cracks his whip and nearly flies off the back, it's doing over 130 mph and accelerating. He reaches Dublin in no time and comes across his first red light, straining to hold back the pullets. Then alongside pulls a Ferrari, the driver looks on with amazement at the sight beside him, waiting for the lights he revs his engine and slips his clutch. The salesman glances down and smiles, I'll give this cunt a shock he says, the lights go green he cracks his whip and the harness snaps, the pullets and Ferrari disappear into the distance and he's left there. A policeman witnessing this walks up 'What is the trouble sir?' he asks The salesman replies 'Sorry officer, my big hens have gone' ONLY TO BE READ BY UK EYES FFS , NOTE YOU NEED A KNOWLEDGE OF ENGINES AND EXPERIENCE OF WORDPLAY, NOT FOR THOSE WHO THINK SESAME STREET IS ADULT HUMOUR.
