True, technology has made it more difficult for thieves since the times of said interviews.

That’s what smart car thieves say, when they get interviewed about the nefarious ways: Drive as a saint, and you can drive for years without being stopped.

Nope, it’s got a steering wheel instead of a handlebar. Seriously, this is one of the defining factors at Swedish custom bike shows. Three (or even five) wheels are fine, regardless of configuration, but no steering wheels allowed.

No, it’s not totally ok. We probably disagree on other things too. 

Blimey, is he in the way of his accuser?

And, being Scandinavian, I know from firsthand experience that the Saab’s heating system is second to none. Volvos had good systems to, as did - unsurprisingly - Ladas.

Then again, she’s already been punished beyond all reason by losing her daughter.

The Ford factory manufacturing B-24s was built in an L shape, with a large carousel in the corner. This was done so the building would not cross a county line - which would have caused untold grief involving taxes. Never mind fanatical Nazi Übermenschen and suicidal Japanese kamikaze pilots - if there’s one entity…

Lawrence, you just became my # 4 hero (trailing Mahatma Gandhi, Mike Hailwood and Susan Anthony). I’m a motorcycle guy with 35+ bikes and 5 cars in my dream garage. This Corvair Monza is one of the latter, and seeing you resurrecting a Corsa this way made my day. Particularly like the idea of a fake story, from a…

And the there’s the Haynes ‘marriage’ manual, the on explaining teenagers, Americans, sex etc. etc.....

Things are different in Russia. ‘The Punisher’s’ dashcam footage has been widely available for years, and the fact that he didn’t get fired speaks for itself.
