Ducky on NCIS (David McCollum) has the exquisite taste to drive a self-restored Morgan and yet sips Earl Grey tea, what's with that? I mean really would a Lotus Super 7 owner driver drink Mountain Dew? Morgan 8

@Rockhead,
bug-eyed sprites made by Austin are fun, Sprite/Midgets (Sprigets) fake Sprites made by MG, not so much.

@dyslexia,
So, what kind of gas mileage do they get, and once you finally get the tops up, how bad do they leak.

@roger,
A guy in China unveiled this a couple of days ago. Not going to comment on his taste, but...it's just crying out for particularly bad puns.

Believe it or not, the top picture is (or was) an actual Police car, brought in when we built the first proper motorways (note the Police bell on the front). The theory being that the Police could keep up with the baddie bank robbers when they were escaping with their loot.

@Rockhead,
You know, I think you're right!

Although I'd prefer to think of it as that smug look that a catfish gets when it's just had naughties.

@dyslexia,
Bug eyed?

They're affectionately known as "Frog eyed" over here.

Probably some sort of 1960's insult aimed at the French....who knows?

Mountain Dew and Couvoisier.

Or Laphroig single malt with a splash of Hires Root Beer.
