Ah, British reliability.. Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious
I came upon this gem in a review of a mid-60's Lotus (which is a British maker of those 4-wheeled things, Terry)
"The back of the chassis is much better preserved, especially on the Twin-Cam models, because of the oil thrown out by the engine and gearbox." - Well, that's certainly a glass half-full approach.
and
"Special problems are presented by ventilation, basically because it never works. "
and
"In conclusion the Europa is ideally suited to the committed masochist, who enjoys tinkering more than driving. "

Hey, I actually bought a Camry Hybrid. I pick it up on Thurs. I sure hope it does not spew oil or battery acid for that matter. 40 MPG baby--Sweeeet
The word verification is getting really tough on me. ozrhzp
Why do they call it word verification anyway, why not letters verification?
