                   that's 6 gallons, 1 large bottle
                   of octane booster, and 1 quart of oil every 200 miles....
        
              Is that Marvel Mystery Oil for the tank, or 20w50 for the engine?
        
            20w50 for the engine, this is British-cars, isn't it?
        
        You mean the engine *compartment*, don't you? (This is British Sports
        Cars, isn't it?)
        
      No, no, that's the people behind you and the road beneath you (so you
      can find your way home?)
        
   Don't forget that the 20w50 is also renewing the undercoating.  How
   *do* the floorboards rust out in an LBC?
        
>From the top down. And it's for the driveway beneath you, so you can tell
you're home. Isn't this all part of what the Mystery is, anyhow?
