I had a broken motor mount bolt on the back of the engine on my old Saab 99.

Maybe they don’t buy many Navara’s in South Africa, but Nissan has three models on the top 10 list. That’s quite the feat.

Apparently is linked to snakes available in Asian wet markets though. Bring on the Ophidiophobia.

Exactly. Look at her neighbors. Camelot Mobile Home Park, just a mile down the road.

“you could buy a nice sub $15,000 car that wouldn’t drop in value all that much and best case scenario break even on the sale, or only lose a little bit of money and hopefully, it would be less than $2,100"

1971 ? I distinctly remember having to unscrew cell lids and check water levels on my cars in the 80's. And they were cars built in the 80's.

6th gear?  Finally getting with the times I see.

4th gear. Ya that’s what everybody wants in their job. Constant surveillance and tracking of every single task you do, all day long. It’s bad enough that call centers and Amazon fulfillment warehouses do that now. But I guess mass production assembly lines have been like that forever, but somehow it seems different now…

“any feature that is available to be activated or deactivated in software could be vulnerable to something like this, and I can’t think of any context where remote removal after purchase is okay.”

It’s a brave new (software) world we live in.

Feb. races in Montreal. That’s what the heated screen is for...

Faaarrrk!  50,000 hours in Chicagoland traffic?  Put a bullet in me after 50 hours!

Ya, I wasn’t sure how low to go ;) But there’s the odd outlier that will drive their exotic all year, in all weather to push the average up.

7 years or 14,000 miles ???

Ah yes.

I thought it was only VW that hasn’t figured out how to stop leaks. My ‘99 Passat wagon had footwells regularly filled with water :(

You’d better be happy with a 2.0 turbo four. ‘Cause it seems like that’s the only engine available from any maker these days.

Thanks for your info. I never really looked into BWT. They’re pretty prolific sponsors in many motorsports. Pink does seem pretty central to their motorsports brand. Not sure why though, as water - and pink color don’t fit together in any way I understand.

Ya, I’m torn about Aston. I don’t live in the snack bracket to afford a (new) one, so I shouldn’t really be concerned either way.

Didn’t seem to help the 11 foot 8 Can opener bridge.
