Finding our rejected car!

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
When we bought our new, car and it was delivered, we found that the factory had installed the wrong colour interior. We therefore rejected it and asked for the correct car. Around 6 months after getting the correct car we took a holiday to France, and, in a campsite in Brittany, we found that we were staying in the caravan opposite the caravan being stayed in by the family that had bought our rejected car! We found it amazing, the two cars are identical in every way except the colour of the interior.
