I'd hesitate to say 'never' Malcolm, unless I had some compelling supporting data at least. I've always thought it interesting that SAE 40 oil was recommended for the Nippy, implying that relatively high running temperatures were anticipated, despite the large reserve of oil. Either Austins got their sums wrong or they planned for some fairly ballsy long-distance driving. Granted though, it's not a happy set-up for your average Sunday lunch run.
