Sorry to spoil the fun but chances are the seats come to the assembly line with a white synthetic cloth cover over them, it probably had a valid barcode on it to tell the guy to install the seat. The seat maker is the real idiot.

Patrick should’ve disqualified the Allroad from these responses, that’s just too easy.

Is that a big-ass storm cloud hovering over it?

had a 2005 allroad. So tired of reliability I sold it and got a 2012 civic

Yep, I have a B6 Avant 6 Speed. It’s like a dog that’s a part of your family but keeps eating your shoes and crapping on your carpet.

Why are the pretty ones always crazy?

My A4. Fun to drive in all conditions but fuck VAG and their unreliable systems

This’n. I’m sure I don’t need to explain why. This is the car I mentioned in the other thread that I owned for four years and the CEL was on the entire time. Given the myriad other mechanical issues it gave me I never got around to replacing the Bank 1 Cat that was throwing the light, just disconnected the battery…

Yeah, I still read “Russia” and see the whole USSR in my head. Thanks for the clarification.

You didn’t stall at all in deploying that joke.

For those older than 30...

I like the exterior of the Allante, always have. Boxy, but smooth. Distinctly Cadillac, but obviously just a bit different. The story of its creation is also a fairly entertaining read. An interesting note stems from the name “Allante.” It doesn’t actually mean anything in any language. It was picked from a huge list…

Apparently that ship had boxer engines.

Sounds like the crew’s relationship is on the rocks.

“Because if there is anything that will motivate a country to take action around climate change, it’s when climate change starts to interfere with their ability to effectively kill other humans.”

Since actual evidence doesn’t seem to be doing the trick, the right kind of anecdotal evidence might.

It’s worse then that! Steve Rogers is actually Canadian!

This is correct. No one gives North by Northwest or The Birds the proper love.

Would the age of the reviewers affect it you think?
