I see that much rust and I am giving a hard no on almost any car. Those Jeeps have a pandemic of rust, and they aren’t rare or special. They are free for a reason.

That rendering looks like a focus group designed it. I vastly prefer the original. The rendering looks like it could be any bland, boring sedan, but rendered as a hatchback, thus making it so inoffensive as to be ugly.

Schreyer is semi retired, IIRC. Now their head of design is Luc Donckerwolke, known for his time at Bentley, Ferrari and Fiat (he designed the 500).

Cannot unsee the dog face now.....

I have wanted to do that for years, because wagons, but sadly do not have the time, space, or knowledge to do it right.

You, sir, have a star and a salute from me.  Go get 'er!

Probably the worst was my 85 300ZX. My dad and I went and looked at it, and he said “you’re buying it.” I didn’t disagree.

Every night on the way home, I see someone with their brights on in the city. EVERY NIGHT.

Wasn’t there some concern about them turning into flaming balls of death in a rear end collision too? Because the gas tank is essentially the rear crumple zone?

You know some folks at Chrysler, so.....

The irony is that any one of the Jeeps rusting audibly in David’s back yard is STILL more reliable than that Mini.

My strong Granada memory was my dad pointing one out in the Auto Trader to see if I was interested.  16-year-old me’s response was a more polite version of the “fuck that noise” that was running through my head.

I had a BMW for a few years. I did my research before I bought and found that most parts were about a 10 percent premium over the Ford I was driving at the time. This proved to be the case with a bit of Internet shopping.

The movie itself should have been either much longer (the rumoured three hour cut rings true) or split into two. Then you make the Palpatine reveal the last part of the first, and pick things up in the second. There was no build up to Palpatine being back, just “oh yeah, the Emperor? Totally alive. Had a…

So nice of David to show you his back yard.

Am I the only one who is a little sad that David spent Christmas alone? 

I, for one, will really miss Matt LeBalanc.

For me it wasn’t lateral support, it was the utter lack of thigh support. The centre console started digging into my calf as well. It was utterly perfect otherwise.

If you can stomach the seats, an Accord Sport is just about perfect for this application. As to the space, I damn near bought one myself. My huge (4 foot 5) 6-year-old would fit behind me fine in his booster, and i am 6-foot-3. I just couldn’t get comfy in the thing.

Play that frunky music!
