Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

PIONEER builders and users of lightweight oil-erigined vans, St. Cuthbert's Co-operative Association have now constructed a vehicle for laundry work in which a four-cylindered oil unit has been placed under the floor and next to the rear axle. Access to the engine is gained through a side panel or a trap in the floor, which is sprayed with a rubber preparation to prevent entry of fumes.

The ground clearance is as high as the axle and the top of the engine does not rise above the level of the wheel arches. Other features of the van, which has exceptional body space, are a broad windscreen and side observation panels for the driver, There is a door at the rear and a roller shutter at the front near side.

The Association are at present building a mobile baker's shop.
