Speaking of which, I was at the petrol station the other week with the
bonnet open, filling up with petrol in my '65. The young attendant came over
with the puzzled look on his face and asked where the engine was. I told him
it was electric and he just said 'oh' and went to serve another customer. He
didn't think to question why I was filling it up with petrol if it was
electric though... ;-)
