Smelly car survey

Cars from Edinburgh and Leeds are the smelliest in the country, according to a new survey.

Car air freshener makers Auto Expressions asked smell expert David Prybus to analyse 130 cars from five cities.

Mr Prybus was asked to rank their smells on a scale from 1 (putrid) to 10 (pleasant).

He found that cars from Slough smelled the sweetest (4 out of 5 cars got more than half marks), while those from Leeds and Edinburgh were the pongiest (more than half got low marks).

Mr Prybus said: "The most common pungent smells came from cigarettes, rotting foods, drinks cans and blankets that lock in pet odours.

He obviously didn't analyse any cars in Camden Town :-)
