Yup. Delightfully ironic .
The M8 is a loaner remember.
Putting a bit of tinfoil in front of it is amusing but the camera is  
seriously retro and digital pinholing saves a lot of time.
It reminds me of when I owned a Range Rover - but old, full of dents  
and really beaten up with the 'wrong' engine and gearbox in it.  
Perhaps one of the few that ever got really 'used'.
Frisson....I get a shiver even seeing words like that.
