Landy's too, along with gearbox oil, diff oil and anything else that can leak. Shame they still rust away though.

Coating the underside on purpose and letting it drip everywhere does sound a fucking stupid thing to do though, bet this is what it looks like after you've driven off with oil dripping everywhere!
