[NTLK] Oil in Newton.. LOL

[Ed Kummel]

Two cars that are on my list of must own are the Triumph Spitfire and the TR6...in British Racing Green of course! I was told by a neighbor who had a TR6 that you have to own two...
And the Spirfire, how cool is it to hang your arm out the window and have your knuckles almost on the ground! Then of course, there's the Jaguar (you know which one) a classic Land Rover (like the one in Daktari...and yes, it needs to be zebra striped). An MG Midget, and of course the MGB TD like the one Steed drove in The Avengers. Funnily enough, I'm not impressed by the Aston Martin...but I'll take a 70's Morris Minor, or an ancient Rover!

Hey ! All the oil leaking from the engine makes sure the floor doesn't rust !

I guess the oil cap wasn't tightened and now I have a bit of oil inside.
