Birthday Cake

I had a surprise birthday party at the weekend, and feeling it still this morning - but wanted to show you all my cake - I was well impressed with it!

I couldn't believe the detail of the cake, from the photos that they got sent.

The angle of the photo shows the seat backs look like boarding ladders, so guess thats what they thought they were - but other than that, it brill! even down to the 'Ballistic' logo on the sponsons, the fire extinguisher door in the side of the console and the name even matches the same font!
