That's really spooky - I'd just written a reply using almost identical wording
before spotting Mike's response. To illustrate ignorance of any old cars, I
used to work with a petrolhead whose entire life revolved around his Vauxhall
Astra GTE. He was enthusing one day about modern supercars, in particular how
impressed he was with the Bugatti EB110, especially considering the company was
a "new" name in the motor industry.........
Cheers,
Bill.
