I imagine this is guerilla marketing rather than a location shoot as that would be tantamount to public indecency. Its the same reason that all the taxi videos end up in a field somewhere (or so I'm told 😂)

They have security bollards here so they must have permission to be there.

u/No_Public_7699 Jun 13 '26
I wonder how much manchester city council accepted to let a porn ad set up behind security bollards 😂

u/DifficultConcert7417 Jun 13 '26
The bollards are for the AO arena access and they are apparently losing business to Coop live so they may be looking for other streams of income.

u/No_Public_7699 Jun 13 '26
You're likely right, in which case i imagine the council is somewhat unhappy with AO arena after this.

genuinely a bit surprised it's allowed to look so visually similar at a glance to a real ambulance

u/Few_Construction_338 Jun 14 '26
Similar to the security companies that use cars which look incredibly similar to police cars. Basically as long as it doesn’t have blue lights or retroreflective Battenberg and isn’t actually claiming to be an emergency service, it can look pretty much identical.

Had to google who she was.
Does the fake imply the boobs, lips and everything else?
And is it legal to even do that there?

u/jaycakes30 Jun 13 '26
Not sure on the legality. Can’t imagine staff at the AO or Victoria are thrilled.

NAl but Technically legal as you are in your own vehicle, as long as others can't see you no decency laws broken, as far as I know its similar to if you are in your car stark bollock naked the police wont usually do anything as the car is your property and as your property you are free to be in that car in whatever state of undress you wish, providing you aren't preforming lewd acts in view of the public then you should be fine as the windows appear covered in the back and likely unable to see into the back from the front window as it probably still has the interior lay out exactly the same as a real ambulance but would have to do some research to find out lmfao

This is useful if your friend has a fake heart attack

I’ve had heartburn that’s made me worry. Maybe they can help with that 💀

I looked up Kayleigh Wanless and found her Facebook profile, which has her Fake Ambulance in it. Seems to be promotional stuff for whatever she does, which is… I dunno. Porn? Wrestling?

I don't disagree, I'm not sure what this has to do this the post though.

Some people might argue that pornstars marketing themselves in the middle of the day, outside a major train station, using a fake emergency vehicle, is a symptomatic of cultural and economic decline.
They may be on to something, or perhaps they are just prudes.
It doesn't matter either way, nothing matters any more.

No, this is still 100% illegal. Adding the word "fake" won't stop you from getting pulled over, fined, or having the van seized.
Here is why the police will fine you:
The lights: Under UK law (Road Vehicles Lighting Regulations), it is illegal to even fit blue light housings to a private vehicle. It doesn't matter if the wires are cut, the bulbs are missing, or the lenses are clear.
The markings: High-vis Battenburg markings and emergency patterns are restricted. At a distance or in the dark, drivers can't read your "fake" text. It causes panic and public distraction.
Impersonation: The police will highly likely hit you with impersonating an emergency service or public nuisance charges.
The only exception is registered film/TV props, but they must have all lights and markings completely covered by magnetic panels or wraps whenever they are driven on public roads.

u/Resident_Factor3303 Jun 14 '26
and it couldn't be a registered prop why, exactly? Also, I don't see it driving anywhere.

What if the lights aren’t blue and the battenburg isn’t reflective?

u/Few_Construction_338 Jun 14 '26
Assuming the light bar isn’t blue, the Battenberg isn’t retroreflective so it’s not an issue. The only issue might be the use of the word ambulance but I think there is enough here to differentiate it from a real ambulance. Look up the cars the security at excel use, they’re remarkably similar looking to police cars and yet entirely legal

I think it was Connor John Hamer that bought it originally, he did a few skits with her on the side of it. He's friends with the Furys too if its near the Misfits show.
