Because those are boring and uninspired?

This thing is EXACTLY what it needs to be, and on the heels of the new NSX it is exactly what Honda needed. The best part is, I can only imagine how many upper management stiffs fought tooth and nail against this thing, lost, and now they will sell every god damned one of them they build, interject some much needed…

It is a temporary lubricant, some waxy hydrocarbons dissolved in solvent with some aromatic oils. Those waxes can be lubricitous if the part is large or the forces big enough, but for delicate stuff it’s so much glue.

WD-40 is NOT a lubricant. When will people figure this out. Go buy some white lithium or silicone based spray nonsense if you want to lubricate something.

Auto insurance guy here. Turo should not and would not be involved in the valuation process outside of possibly verifying the value. The adjuster will assess the car “conservatively” and will view the terms of the policy to see if coverage is in place.

Annnnnnnnnnd this is the type of thing I come here for.

That Rover 100 test caused something of a scandal for the company. The car was designed in the late ‘70s and launched as the Austin MiniMetro, then facelifted a few times.

GoFundMe this for him:

I agree, they almost sound like a NIMBY who feels violence againsy the car is justifiable because they consider it an eyesore.

Excuse me, which way to Wollingstoke-on-Fleeb?

I went back and read a couple of older articles about it and the complainers seem to be people in search of the “perfect” photo of the village. From the quotes they frankly sound like insufferable twats, but I somehow suspect that the vandal is a local who thinks that the car is driving tourists and thus money away…

I love the idea of old folks driving around in powerful hot hatches.

He did say he wanted a lime green one, let’s give him the 200hp VXR version:

I don’t even get why a yellow car would “ruin” a photo, instead of add personality to it. But then what I don’t get even more, is where on the venn diagram you get someone who is such a twee fucker that this is a problem for them, but then also is the kind of yob (that’s the term over there right?) that smashes car…

Im a cheap fuck and hate the idea of people begging for money online ( regardless of the issue).

This guy deserves a GoFundMe like that dude in Delaware with the awesome garage and the jerkwad neighbors.

I learned all about the frit when I was building a custom fastback for my car. The rear glass was a bear. The first one was made from a custom cut RV windshield. It shattered during the build. The second one was made again from a custom cut RV windshield, and I used a special “frit paint” along the edge. The…

This was great. You know why? Because, for all of 2 minutes, I wasn’t thinking about the next four years.
