Not very far i would have thorght You would have to bump start her? would not the magnets in the starter dynamo petrol cut off on the carb be up the spout as well as the condencer ??????? not sure. But also all the euroboxs would be blocking up the roads :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I have thorght about this and you need an old diesel like a 205 Peugeot remove the magnetic fule cut off and attatch a pice of string to the manual shut off lever on the pump to turn it off. A rag and some matches to warm the induction air (Remember no glow plugs) and park it on a hill to bump start her :thumbup: Why what have you heard is ther a Metior comming our way :omg: :omg: Andy W

Preparing for the armageddon?
I always thought it only kills electronic circuits ??
So an early beetle should do just fine IYAM. Comforting feeling(?)
On the other hand, think about it, no traffic lights, cars all over the place, people in panic, police confiscating your runner...etc so not that far. Or when you live in Scotland, no problem.:rofl:
