That's easy, putting the radiator there means that the car is cheaper and easier to prepare for banger racing..

Is there a prize for that answer please?

yes!! you get two weeks of weeding my garden & sort out my clio which doesnt always recognise the ignition key

Hmm, both of these tasks can be accomplished with the help of fire. Lots of it in the case of the Clio.

It's only a little car so you won't need lots of fire. The 406 on the other hand......

cant burn the 406, its trapped in my shed & im beginning to like the clio 75mpg & ive managed to get radio 4 lw, its red & almost paradise.... im very easily pleased

You could accidentally push it in to a lake and pretend it was stolen.

i wouldnt do that, i like our insurance man! he gets me work & is very helpful

OK, so push it into a lake and tell the insurance man that some mythological supreme being made you do it in exchange for eternal life. That never fails.

i like my clio im thinking of taking it to a classic car show

I usually take my modern to classic car shows. park it round the corner then walk in. Until the NEC start the "International slightly battered high mileage rep-mobile" show its a system i'll have to stick with.
