The super mini is quite popular over here, which would be an amazingly tiny vehicle for you lot. A Peugeot 107 to you would be like a lawnmower.

It probably has a mower engine in it too.

I'd probably be driving a small car too if I had drive around one of your roads. But my big bad Japane... I mean Americ... import car is doing just nicely.

It has a 1.0 litre petrol engine. The advantage being it gets over 60 mpg.

True. The best my car can get is 29 MPG because I went for the 3.5 vs. the 2.5.

That someone was Scotty. To be honest, you can give Scotty a piece of crap and he'll make it the pride of the fleet.

Very true. Having the greatest CE in SF history mess with your engine is about as sure a thing as you can get.

Aye, I'm not sure I'd count deliberate sabotage by a well-placed crewman a design flaw.

It'd be like saying a plane has a design flaw because one of the ground crew deliberately severed the fuel lines to the engines.

Is there anything that is actually wrong with the Excelsior?

Only if, like Seafort, you consider it a design flaw if it's able to be sabotaged by the best engineer in the history of ever.

Give me some duct tape, crowbar, minor explosives and a fresh coffee and I can make anything "not work". :happydevil:

Minor explosives should do the trick.

Hell you could probably kick a bunch of glowing and winking lights to make them not work. :P
