What's under the bonnet? - from 01/06/06

When do you know it's time to put oil in your car?

When you lift up the bonnet and don't recognise one little bit of it.

This is what happened to me. I have had this car for about a year now and thought I had checked the oil before but when I had a look under the bonnet, the place where you put the oil seemed to have moved. Further more where you put water had also moved. I had a think and then it came to me. The last time I looked under a bonnet was infact the bonnet of my last car. Needless to say I gave my car a well deserved drink of water and oil and promised her I wouldn't leave it so long next time.
