It may be the romantic in me, but I like to think she kept up the skill, snuck out of the palace on occasion and helped do an oil change or two while giving the mechanics a hard time!
In all seriousness, it's fascinating footage.

Isn't that interesting? I know she very much enjoyed driving her jeep on the lands around her places. No doubt she retained, and probably used, many of the mechanical skills she learned during the war. Thank you, Aurelius!
