My only complaint was that the oil filter was directly above the front
suspension, making a big mess every time I changed the oil.
My contention has been, for many years, that engineers were and are, never 
made to go out to the shop and try to work on the cars they 
design!.....e.g........E-Jags.......designed on a D-Type racing car that had 
its engine completely 
removed by the racing team every 200 miles or less........of course 
maintainance is easy if the engine is out of the car, 
eh?........otherwise....it takes 
a small English mechanic to have any hope of reaching anything to be able to 
change it, unless half dismantled.......<g>........So it's very easy for me to 
design a hell for auto engineers.........when they arrive, they are given the 
car they designed and they have to fix and maintain it.....over and over and 
over again, lying on a cold concrete floor in an unheated garage!!!

There....Now!.........I feel much better!!!!........
