    Is that another new one or the one that has been running for a couple of
    days? Cos if it is the old one then it is good but not that good.

    It's good, but I'm convinced it could be better if the the choice of
    vehicles was in reverse, so he ended up on the monkey bike speeding into
    the distance..

  7. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Champ
    I must admit that when I first saw it and the monkey bike morphed to a
    C90 I thought "Fucking crap bit of continuity, that...".

    main box I'll have another go.

    What about? it was a big success, it spawned the Porsche 356 and helped
    get German industry up and running after Her Hitler lost the plot.

    They're probably embarrassed about who commissioned it rather than the
    car itself.

    maybe I'm being thick here, but if the above is true, why did they
    bother with the "new Beetle"?

    That explains why they're so embarrassed they created a modern homage to
    it and called it the Beetle.

    They're embarrassed by the freaks who claim that VW are traitorous scum
    for abandoning air-cooling. Which, IME, is the VW owners club.

    I'd imagine most manufacturers get sniffy if you ask for parts for 30
    year old cars. Which isn't quite the same as embarrassed.

    Although Saab aren't too bad; go in for V4 parts they tend to do
    disconcerted rather than sniffy.

    You can, in return, do stunned when you ask for the price of a fuel pump
    actuating arm for a 900.

    A C90 in a field of sheep. Wasn't that a reference to Adny Woodward?
