It looks like the warm weather has gone to this young man's head -wearing a mankini in an Ashford street.

Josh Howard was spotted in the Borat-style swimwear by a shocked motorist.

He was on his way to the beach at Folkestone to enjoy the sunshine with friend Tom Brown, who was wearing a similarly scantily-clad outfit.

Josh's mum Amy said: “What is worse, he is on the phone to me at the time. How proud we are.”

He was spotted in the unusual outfit in Victoria Way by environmental health protection officer Jayne Lever.

"As I was driving along I could see this guy standing there and I thought ‘what’s he got on?,'" said the Ashford Borough Council employee.

"I thought he was wearing a flesh coloured leotard at first."

It was only as she pulled over that Jayne realised he was wearing a mankini - the swimwear made famous by actor Sacha Baron Cohen’s comic character Borat.

"The sunshine brings out the best in us – and the most outrageous,” she said. "I took a photo and waved to him.

"He just waved back to me quite nonchalantly. I had to wait for a while to stop giggling before I could make my next visit."
