Second tier Alan Ayckbourn because the family stuff hasn't aged well - the women making cups of tea, jokes about female drivers. It was presented in 1976, to be fair. As a drama this is fine - all set in a garage, the tale of two couples, one man tries to sell the other a car, both have marriage troubles, a woman has a nervous breakdown. This was written in a few days and feels like it - there's a lot of chat. It would be a decent night at the theatre.
