Especially young car mechanics need to have enough interest in classic
30+ year old automobiles,
otherwise they chose the wrong job.

And with our beasts becoming classics,
any german shop´s young guys asking these questions make me leave instantly.
I expect at least the curiosity to find out on their own (I admit the
washer fluid is a tough one).

Cluelessness about our cars might have been acceptable in 2000, but not
today!

carburettors, and all these other quirks...
