Shame he knew the oldies so well, but the amount of oldies coming into workshops has probably dropped right off now days, I mean cars like the 201 etc.

If Merlin is his real name then are/were his parents druids?

Some say that he will only sit at a round table for lunch and that only he is able to use spanners from a tool box made of stone....

All we know is he is called Merlin..
