Yes, but instead of inflicting pain using weird pipe unions and pipes themselves, they used a lot of electronics.

I'd imagine so. Being Bose, however, they do have their heads screwed on tight when it comes to making things well, so perhaps it wouldn't be as painful as I think. Bloody heavy, mind.

Wow.  Obviously the solution to the ashtray overflowing is to use the rest of the car as an ashtray.  They must have been doing thot for at least a couple of months...

Don't go to Paisley then. Not because of the car, it's just really shit

I have had an old fluid extractor thing for years and its never held a vacuum so to drain anything you had to pump away like a demented person.

So the other day i fitted a check valve in to the suction pipe so i could build up and hold vacuum in its reservoir and now it's working like a champ as ably demonstrated by removing half a litre of oily muck from of a mobile tyre vans little piston compressor.

Happy days...
