...that's nothing! I once drove a crappy Citroen BX, in which _all_ idiot
lights on the dash would come on if you turned fast. It became even more
exciting when, about 50 miles from home, it started to smell and smoke rose
from the dash... luckily, the car extinguished itself and continued to
drive, well... almost like it should. And the time in another BX, when the
hydropneumatical system decided to fail, and the car lost power steering,
brake assistance and self-levelling suspension, to become uncontrollable-
at 90mph... the car was 3 months old. Boy, now who's complaining about
Audis being unreliable? :-)
