Can I recommend a method for removing smells from car interiors?
There are a couple of methods of eradicating foul odours in cars such as dog snark, cigarettes and spilled milk. One was to leave a cardboard box inside filled with dry grass cuttings and sweet woodruff.

You're right. The other one was a bowl of malt vinegar left in the car overnight. It's sensible to stick a ‘Post-it’ note to the steering wheel to remind you before driving off.
