Yup, and they’re not even *that* rare, just very desirable. I’m on the lookout for a Mk1/2 Jaguar project at the moment and some of the mostly-dissolved tat that comes up on eBay is insane, and still selling.

The worst car I’ve restored was a ‘59 Fiat 500 that had been half in a damp ditch for a decade. It was literally thre-quarters of a car as the lower passenger side had rusted away. Everyone assumed it was too far gone, but with the help of a written-off donor (driver’s side crumpled) it came back to life. Not bad for…
None of them. They’re all terrible.
Mad Max II > Mad Max I, so it is possible to improve on an original with a sequel.
Yup, I’m currently waiting for spinal surgery (September 20th, finally!) but have been going though all the tests and diagnostic procedures since January, so I’ve been off work and unable to wrench since well into last year when my back went. Whilst my paid job can basically go do one, not being able to work on my…
I’ve done a 400 mile drive with satnav and music, and it holds the battery at whatever level you plug it in at, which is perfectly adequate for me. Without the satnav running, it happily plays music and charges.
When I read this story, am I the only one who immediately thought of Mark Chapman?
Mark Chapman weird.
Though in Shkrelli’s case he’s killing people by indirectly denying them medication, rather than shooting them personally. I’m not sure which is worse.
BECAUSE JEEP NO POPULAR.
At least in Australia/outside the USA. They drive on the left, so most old jeeps have the steering wheel on the wrong side, let alone the lack of spares support etc.
Well duh, it’s a glasshole.
I dress up old timey and wave big guns around. Be nervous.
Um, mine does, and it’s only a bloody Fiat. It’s got a USB slot.
To be honest, it’s nice to hear for once about a ‘pilot error’ that didn’t end up in fiery death for all concerned.
No way those drone props are going to lift that thing.
Depends entirely which one you prefer to look at/ride. Yeah, the GW is more refined, quieter, and bits fall off it far less frequently, but the Harley has more of a presence, and is more fun to ride, in my opinion.
Mind you, I’ve got a 1200 Sportster, so I know fuck all anyway. Buy what you like!
Tbh, regardless of the whole sorry episode, attempting to hound the woman out of multiple jobs isn’t really in anyone’s best interests.
This. I’m actually kind of glad she got another teaching job. She made a mistake (or several!) but she apologised and should be allowed to move on.
Ditto. they’d probably suffocate in all that bubble wrap.
