"Shocking ... young girl poses with model at China car show

CAR show organisers sparked horror when they used girls as young as five to pose in bikinis to advertise luxury motors.

The youngsters wore full make-up as they were draped across cars alongside adult models to help sell the motors.

But shocking images from the show in Wuhan, China, infuriated parents and child protection experts.
