I got 39 out of 39, then gave up. The quiz was running so slow I was losing the will to live. Not sure whether it was the quiz or my laptop that was taking the piss, but quite a few new models have gained classic status since I started it. :(
This was in my local filling station :)

1936 Austin All original , I did talk to the driver and said " I would like to go for a ride in this , BUT not quite yet " :D
Terrible aerodynamics though. I bet it's a pig to drive over about 80 :(
Was the driver Herman Munster?
No he was not , but did have the time of day to speak with someone who appreciated the vehicle ;)Quote:

Not cheap though, as I need 8 litres of the stuff @ £35 for 2L! You can feel the difference in power and acceleration with it, though. It also makes the engine run as smooth as a very smooth thing. IME, nothing else compares. French liquid gold!
Filled her up with my favourite premium fuel, Texaco Supreme diesel, poured in some STP diesel injector cleaner into the tank, and now she's going like rocket ship! ZOOOOOOOM...... :eyebrows::eek::D
