| I am curious as to at what point in the evening these various women on dates 
inform you of their healey induced headaches :)
Actually I too have experienced the fairer sex being much more sensitive to 
car smells, a while back a car freind of mine and I took the wives out
in his Sunbeam Imp, I though it was pretty cool alll four of us driving 
around (and fitting pretty well in this car about the size of a mini) in 
this spiffy
old subcompact, but before long the comment from the back seat was it 
"smells like gas".  Whenever I come in for a drive from whatever old british 
roadster
I have running at the moment I "smell like gas".  I personally find the mild 
smell of exhaust, hot oil, gas and the general musty smell of an old british 
roadster to
be a mild and pleasant intoxicant, but apparently most women don't agree.
That being said the wife is pretty tolerant of the fixation I have with 
these old cars and the time money and attention they get, so I can't 
complain too much.
