Exactly. I'm all about living the experience, writing a relevant and nicely detailed piece about the car and moving on. It's like hearing a catchy pop song on the radio - great at first but then you hear it so many times you get sick of it.

Not at all. I just think it all could have gone into one well constructed article instead of putting out half a dozen articles about the same car in a twenty-four hour time period. I'm not the only one who is thinking like this.

Not to be overly critical, but this is the sixth article in twenty-four hours that Jalopnik has posted about the same car. I'm really starting to wonder if this isn't "clandestine", paid product placement.

Came here to post the same thing. It's cool and all, but I'm over it. I think it will be forgotten about soon after it debuts. Until then, I'm waiting for the article that features the stitching on the door trim, or how awesome the spare tire jack is...

I'm like you - no interest in the practice, but it combines with other regulations. Like a 15" tire meets the specs the government laid out for it to be put on a 15" wheel with the appropriate width tolerances. This is how the tire was tested for safety and DOT highway use approval. A tire that is 10" wide, inflated…

The participants in the event were rarely a problem. It was the non-drinking volunteers.

I worked in country club management for about five years and I liken this to the idiots who showed up to golf tournaments as volunteers (usually sheltered corporate wives) who would get into our electric golf carts and say things like:

Bingo. Driving competency has to do with more than just health. There are plenty of people I know who claim "I'm just a bad driver." and laugh about it as a running joke because they don't realize they are piloting a deadly weapon down the road and refuse to improve their terrible skills.

Because we don't have regulations in place for it. In Georgia, you can have your license revoked if your doctor signs the paperwork saying you're unfit to drive. The problem is that 95% of doctors won't sign the paperwork because that opens the door for the old or incompetent person to sue them for doing so. My…

I had one almost identical to that, minus the WS-6 package. V8, T-56, great interior. I still like the lines on the body too. Haha

When the Olympics came to Atlanta in 1996, a VW dealer here bought about a dozen of them for some reason. They sat in the corner of the back lot, rotting away until about 1999 when the dealership moved and the space became Land Rover North Atlanta. The cars stayed there for a while and then disappeared one day. I have…

I did LeMons with one of those. Days of Thunder style.

Bought less than a month ago for $2000. I've replaced the shift collar ($25), rebuilt the generator today ($17), changed the clutch ($210), and done the normal fluid changes. Insurance checks in around $26/mo. for daily driver coverage on a 28 year old. Pulls over 20mpg - city. Found it on craigslist.

This. Mine caught fire three times. But I still loved it.

Thanks! Stuff keeps breaking, but I know what I signed up for. Eventually everything will get rebuilt at this rate.

We'be talked a few times before (I wrote the infamous Explorer lawsuit article) and I've been looking for you.

My daily driver has exactly three things on this list - one being vent windows. It also never had seatbelts from the factory. I like living on the edge...

I've only had it three weeks after it was pulled from a barn. Since it is my primary car, I have been concentrating on the drivability maintenance, including a new clutch last weekend. Tomorrow should be repairing a small amount of body rot and shooting some new paint on it. The tires are fine for a daily until they…

1963. I bought it for a really good price. Finding something as solid for what I paid (newer or old) would be hard to come by.

My daily is out roaming all weekend as usual. 90% of people have no idea what it is.
