Grease monkeys!

[threaded]

One of my toys died driving up the drive. All the lights on the console come on, it's lit up like a xmas tree. Switch it off, back on, dead as a dodo, even the window won't drop the necessary to let me open the door to get out. Something wrong with the electrics.

Thinks: it's still on warranty, get the dealer out to sort it.

Grease monkey arrives.

It's pitch black outside.

Has he got a torch?

Boxter?

Shirley not a German car, what with their famed reliability and all?
