There is of course the variation to Lorenz’s law and it tends to be applicable to those of a certain age and those given to be wearing overalls as well as being horizontal or in other inaccessible place and the overwhelming immediate desire to pee instead!
It probably could be a separate law D3 2.7 Zermatt silver (not another one)
D3 4.4 V8 Zambezi silver
D3 4.4 V8 Adriatic Blue
D3 2.7 (gone) Tonga Green
D3 4.4 V8 LHD Tonga Green
