Jap reliability!
Leave an old ford from the seventies / early eighties outside just overnight and the bloody thing wouldn\'t start next day!

Sweden or Belgium I don\'t remember but the full story is on the web somewhere with pictures. IIRC they wound up breaking it for parts when they got it home; it was in much worse state than it looked...

I\'m not sure it came with keys to lock in it either.
