    haha so it wasn't a tourist - the citroen just burst into flames. that's more likely anyway

    Well...I guess it's an improvement over the person who thought their Civic was RWD.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Yesterday I came across an original road test of a 1929 Buick, by the 'motoring expert' of the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper

    The test comprised what was then an extended day tour, from Sydney down to beautiful Kiama on the South Coast, to observe a Land Speed Record attempt on the beach by Wizard Smith's big aero-engined 'Anzac' racecar

    After picking up the car the tester noticed a dash knob marked 'engine heat control' so because the weather was quite cool he thought it prudent to pull it out to halfway and then left it like that for over 100 miles, as it was still quite chilly that day and the engine obviously needed additional heat

    It was only after the Buick began to struggle uncharacteristically as he ascended a very steep range of mountains, causing him to seek assistance, that he discovered what the knob was really for

    It was the choke
