You need to get yourself a Cobra.


It would fall apart. You need a Ford Falcon to cope with the rough roads of
Leicestershire.

But then he's driving round in a barely roadworthy 1994 Astra diesel
estate that cost him about £800, whereas I'm in a 3-year-old A4
Quattro... which could stop from 60mph faster than he can stop from 30mph.

Anyway, that's a whole different argument, but he's almost a less
extreme version of Pinkerton from that point of view.

A guy in the next village has one, a 'girly' 289 that he dare not take
out when the roads are wet! I may have 'only' 250 galloping horses
under my bonnet, but I can apply all of them to wet or muddy
tarmac........

I see that Harry is as fact-challenged as ever - it was potato(e).

Tomato is an urban myth, just like the supposed superiority of
long-term monadic testing in audio ....

One can be familiar with the works of Mozart
without having been born 250 years ago.


Was he the guy who did
