Automated Addition

Stelios has been our car mechanic for many years now. He works from a small shack which looks utterly chaotic. But we were first reassured by the impressive line up outside, of the best pedigree in the car world- Porsches, Mercedes, BMWs. Now it is easy to see why. He has a special relationship with cars: he can feel the problem. He can sense an irregular whirr in an engine and slight reluctance of a lever. Cars respond to his touch and reveal all their problems to him.

Stelios will never be short of work but he will never be rich. It is not important enough for him. His garage is like himself, unkempt and disorganised (more than other garages and mechanics) but warm, efficient and with an air of comfortable familiarity. Most of the time he does not even charge for the smaller problems, just walking off dismissively, too busy to think about money.
