WHY BUY Californian cars?
The constant news reports 'Down Under' indicate that cars spend the majority of 
their life parked with motor running in the middle of a log jammed freeway.
Surely that is not good for the longevity of any vehicle.Then the chances of 
someone with a gun jumping out of the smog and shooting up the pristine 
bodywork would be a worry. But then Elvis's car was worth more with holes in it-
---strange.
Sad about Bo Diddley though
