My wife took our 1965 Landrover to an exhaust(ing) center- She handed the car to a young spotty know-all kid, and walked away to watch. After a few moments of looking around and not getting anywhere, the poor youth reluctantly had to face the shame of admitting to a woman that he couldn't work out how to start her car! He had never come across the concept of a push-button start- it's just as well we'd put in a new battery, otherwise he would have had to find out what a crank handle is! Once the car was running, he looked around a while longer before asking where the handbrake was- "Try that lever sticking out from under the seat, and it's called a transmission brake on landy's!"
The exhaust was fitted, and they didn't even do the usual "you need four new tyres on this.."
