If I collected Cars that were born before me, I could well have many modern classics!! I am having a trend so far that every car I buy is older than the last, this has hapened on all of my cars so far!

Cheers

Going back to the steam engine reply, I do remember working on the "Rocket" in my youth...

I like steam engines...did you know that towards the end the were about 35% efficient, compared to a normally aspirated car engine of (maybe) 23%? Also, you dont need a gearbox, and you cant stall one!
