> You haven't read Robert Rankin's "The Most Amazing Man Who Ever Lived", by
any chance? There's an epidemic of Mad Car Disease, including a Jaws-like
scene featuring a 1958 electric blue Cadillac Eldorado rising from the ocean
in a sleepy British tourist resort. Okay, I didn't say it was a serious

Robert Rankin. I just recently read his "Raiders of the lost Car-Park". I
haven't laughed so hard in ages. Good stuff. And weird, too.
