>> a quiet unimaginable Q car
I've just remembered another one from many moons ago. Late one night on the A505 between Baldock and Royston (pre-cameras) the teenage DTD was hammering along in my Cavalier when I moved out to overtake a shabby old Beetle, which had every panel a different colour and most of them in matt too. When it sped up to 80-odd I noticed the engine cover was slightly open at the top. When it kept accelerating, hard, I guessed it had something a little more than an air-cooled 1.3 in there! My Cavalier soon ran out of puff and the Beetle carried on pulling away into the distance. I'd loved to have known what engine was in there...
