Some time ago a lady turned up here with her 2CV on an AA recovery truck. A look under the bonnet confirmed that the engine was seized solid, it had got so hot it had almost melted. A look at the dipstick showed no oil. "didnt your oil light come on ? " i asked. She replied " oh yes the red one, it was dazzling me so i put a bit of tape over it " ! ! I bit my tongue and refrained from any 'dipstick' jokes !
