If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I can't even tell what it was meant to be!! And I'm guessing from something a tad larger than a Rover Metro?

Exactly!

The car is a Rav4, and was brought in by the AA, another victim of Primrose Hill in St Ives!

Just driving a Chrysler 180 aged me ---- before setting out in it I used to think anything can happen in the next half hour.
