I got that for getting the answer right, so maybe you're not getting it for doing "sod all wrong" but rather for doing "sod all right"?

Plus you'll have the benefit of the ubiquitous MB Star which the local importers fitted to them. The star makes them look like a real MB. A little like the MB100 vans. Your neighbours will be proud of you IMHO. Park it beside the Hybrid with pride.

Edit: I've got to say, those things were bloody hard to sell! 2.9 MB motor made under licence. Wouldn't pull a sick maggot off a greasy chop, ugly as hell, designed by Ken Greenley who I sat beside at dinner one evening.

Yep ! found it interesting though a good concept but too complicated I guess for the masses.

[VocalNeal]

Racing karts also used split rims With an O-ring.

[Kwasaki]
