Cars"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

It does indeed.It also has a matching rev counter, calibrated from 0 to 5500rpm (which is "going some" for the big heavy cast-iron 2.4 litre engine), with big red arrows at the top indicating that the red line has disappeared off to the left. At this speed in top (three-speed thirstymatic gearbox) you are approaching 130mph and consuming dead dinosaurs like an oil-well fire.
