It's like... modern and old-fashioned at the same time. But why's it got them black stripes on the side?” Sometimes an audience is engaged and wants the technical details and sometimes, well, sometimes their dog cocks its leg on a lamp post and an innocent trickle starts running under the tyre of the car you're discussing.
