Heard it before I saw it.....one of these chugging and stuttering along heading for the inevitable stall.

next the nostalgic audio of probably 20 off the belt attempted starts......I like the one where you get that whine and whirr from the starter after the failed attempt. Course some of the atttempts resulted in faint splutterings, bit of heavy right foot to attempt to keep it going.
a few attempts of that nature, soon had the whole village pervaded with the unmistakable smell of unburnt fuel exiting the exhaust.
Have to give the driver some credit, he didnt descend into a Basil Fawlty, but after the first few faillures, he should have at least popped up the bonnet and got a tin of wd40 out!, checked his points distributor cap, and HT leads
