remember the squirt-bulb on the floor of the car, down near the dip switch?
Nightmare!
The floor mounted dip switch was actually a bit of a nightmare too, although sooo common.
Shifting it to a stalk was a good idea as you often wanted to change gear at the same time as dip the lights.
And yet again, what if you wanted to change gear at the same time as wash the screen?
But I had at least two Minis where the screen wash pump was on the dash and once the nylon pipes deteriorated you found yourself washing your hand rather than the screen. :eek:
But I adored the starter switch in the floor!:):):)
Have to assume the designers thought there was less traffic on the roads than was the case.
But all these idiosyncrasies are what gave cars character, so I love them.
Wifey's Pluriel has character too. Not just having a gear lever AND flappy paddles to change gear.
But the weird and wonderful roof that opens into 4 configurations, or 5 if you take the pillars/hoops out.
which we have yet to dare do!
Bring it on!:):):)
Let's have more like this!:):):)
(Citroen really are kings in this.);)
 
On another topic, Satday night, Wifey set fire, more or less, to a packet of frozen fries in our microwave.
God the stink!

Anyways, I have tried (Yes, "I" :rolleyes:) to get rid of it by putting a bowl of water in it wiv a load of lemon juice in for 10 minutes.
It improved it a bit, but it still smells.
Tinternet goes on about "the filters" but ours is quite an old machine and there is no mention of filters.
Please, does any one have any other ideas, apart from "burn it"? As we have already tried that!:mad::mad::mad:
