iDt last, the oil can designed to top-up the ultimate in supertrucks, standing as high as a man and as long as a saloon car.
In fact, the supercan is a fully bunded, polyethelene oil recovery bank, designed in a rather obvious style to prevent it being mistaken for a bottle bank and filled with empty wine bottles by the Guardian readers of Hampstead.
The product, imaginatively called "Oil Can", is emptied on site by a tanker pumping out through the filling aperture. The oil can comes in any colour, you like, say the makers.
If the Hawk's favourite tipple of ales de Rhone came in "Vin Cans" of that calibre he wouldn't give a squark about the colour.
