After watching that video les, it reminded me of James K's post regarding the bonnet hinge. One mistake or risk taken and the implications can be far reaching :-?

Yes agreed. Thank god for robots but then again humans build them! Mind you, mustn't forget there are some clever spot on people about, for example in the space industry. We must be the only species on the planet with such a vast variation of capabilities, from genius right down to dimwit !

Interesting as a historical piece, depressing in how depicts the decline of the British car industry.
The 'Who killed the British motor industry' film, with Jeremy Clarkson, which follows it goes on to underline this sad story, which seems to only serve to prove the adage about putting all your eggs in one basket............. in this case the mostrosity that was British Leyland............
1954 Series 2: 4 door: "Sally" -- Back on the ground with (slave) wheels, now being sprayed by me, slowly......
1970 Triumph Herald 1200: "Hetty" -- Driven back from Llangollen in Wales (twice.....)
1952 Morris Minor MM highlight with sidevalve engine still fitted, wants work, so joins the queue for now......
