Tasty! Go on Rich, you'd soon get used to the steering wheel being on the wrong side.
As an aside; do French people have a right good laugh among themselves when they say the name of the car a bit too quickly?

I'm running a Mk1 at the moment and despite 170,000 miles on it, it's been 100% reliable and only has one tiny patch of rust. But it's lives in warmer climates without salt.

If the engine is blowing oil out into whichever orifice that it is, I'd be VERY concerned about potential problems with piston rings or similar...
