"Ricoh" Blacked Out By Car Wash

A car wash which offers a topless service situated in Rowleys Green Industrial Estate has blanked out the name "Ricoh" in a billboard advert.

The billboard on Foleshill Road had said that the £20 car wash with the women going topless for an extra tenner was opposite the Ricoh Arena home of Coventry City. However to avoid upsetting Arena staff, Bubbles n Babes boss John Bevins decided to black out the word "Ricoh".

He told the CET: "There is nothing actually wrong with the posters because it is opposite the Arena but we don't want to make enemies unnecessarily. "It is not worth rubbing people up the wrong way and the next posters won't mention the Ricoh."
