[Tech1] Car

[John Nottage]

The local police offered a free CAT marking scheme to discourage the 
thieves. I took my car along, but the they failed to mark it: it seems 
VW Golfs have the CAT mounted so deep in the workings of the car that 
the police couldn't reach to mark it. Of course the thieves can't get at 
it to steal it either!
