1. I just hate not being in charge of my own journey. GPS often doesn't know the little local shortcuts or if a slightly more circuitous route is actually quicker due to less traffic, lights, etc.
Get rid if the current roadster and coupe thingy, make it mid-engined with the JCW power train, maybe revive one of the old names BMW owns like Austin Healey or Sprite. Would be a seriously fun car if they did it.
I'd rock it just because it has "Cyborg" in its name.
The Orange Arrows was quite pretty, but the Asiatech sticker on the nose says it all. Recycled Peugeot engine that wasn't very competitive to begin with.
Biggest budget (supposedly), had all of the prices there to make it it happen yet they could never seem to break out of the "best of the rest". A complete boondoggle compared to their WRC efforts in the 1990's.
my dad had an '87 T-bird, not a turbo coupe, but it was black withers velour inside. He sold it when I was 14, I was so mad!
I've loaded a Toyota Hilux, countless 463L pallets (Air Force pallets), but never a Hummvee. Impressive indeed, the crew chief would have to be pretty good, especially if this was done as a "hot load" (rotors turning, usually time sensitive). I'd be worried about bumping into something fragile and expensive!
I wish I would have thought of it first. Whoever runs Best Made has to be making a mint.
I'm fairly certain one of my flights back to the US from Kyrgyzstan (flying home from Afghanistan) was a chartered 737. We had to make a total of 4 stops, compared to 1 in a 747. Was the longest flight ever, even excluding that we had to touch back down and have them do a pressurization test because the cabin door…
Had one of those on my 1993 Mazda Protege. Threw it out and stuck a faux suede one on and a much more attractive MOMO knob.
Don't they own the names Morris and Austin? They could have just put that in the Mini lineup as the Mini Minor... Sure reviving long dead marques with reputations that were ruined by the BL days, but it would be better than diluting the brand's image. Or this is all nonsense. People will pay more to have a badge, even…
Also, from my experience on sport bikes, there is some lash between where the dogs slot into the gears. This allows for the quick clutchless shifts. While it makes for some minor clunkiness in traffic when rolling on and off the throttle on a bike (it was really noticeable on my Ducatis, not as bad on my Triumph), I'd…
The Aygo and it's PSA siblings are all conventional front engine, front drivers, the Renault Twingo and it's forthcoming Smart platform-mate, are rear-engine, rear drive.
Awwwwww!!!
