I really question Tavarish's "knowledge" about cars as people who actually know anything about cars will never suggest an X-Type as it's the car that almost killed Jaguar off in North America and Jaguar period.. but hey if you enjoy never ending rattles, shitty handling and the crappy automatic then go for it. For

Such a shame they didn't carry over the DP01 after the "merger" it looked great and had room for development..

100% correct. You need to remove the drivetrain to check the inner frame rails. Good thing is the roof isn't buckled so there might be little damage to no chassis damage. Does this car already have a salvaged title and is being resold salvage again? No thanks... Then you have wonder about drive train damage which is

Ah yes a non running XK8 "cranks" but doesn't fire.. Well I am willing to bet certain manly parts that the timing chain tensioners went out as they always do on those early AJV8s. If it was cheap to fix I'm sure the owner would have fixed it.. Making a tensioner out of plastic was a great idea.. "Roof is slow to go up

Nothing really top league.. PCA, GT3 Cup, SCCA DSR, IMSA Prototype Light. Still do the Porsche stuff as they car's aren't as prone to failure and don't need fighter jet style maintenance :D I sorta laugh now whenever I read an article about how the next Radical or other Sportracer is the ultimate track day toy.. Yes

The problem is you can't resell said wheel since the wire has been cut... You can splice a new connector on but who's going to buy it? If I were driving I would have made due with the crappy momo wheel and rigged up a radio button.. The issue as I mentioned before is that the wheel has shift lights, temp displays,

Some people want to be "right in it" they have DLSRs and say they are a photographer. We know all the regular photographers... The questions people ask are the same "How fast does it go" "How much HP" "How much does it cost".. gets annoying. Sometimes a smart ass would start asking questions about why aren't running

Our's was an AiM sports formula wheel. The data system runs through the steering wheel so without the wheel we can't acquire said data, no oil temp, psi, laptime display to the driver either... The steering wheel was cut from the car as there is a cable that attaches to the logger. The spare wheel we kept has just

having worked for a race team before we would always disconnect the IDM on our 7.3L truck and lock the wheels together on the trailer with a decent sized cable anytime we would over night. Yes we had our trailer broken into at our shop but all they took was a half a drum of U4.4 race fuel and a small crappy generator.

Oh I understand. Sorry for the venting and coming off as a jerk but it's just such a shame. What really grinds my gears is the lack of service between the airport and downtown. YVR Skytrain is good even though it's a tad slow but still awesome to have.

The buses are fine. However you don't live here and have to deal with the insane amount of public transit tax with have to pay on fuel, car registration etc. Now there is talk of charging higher property taxes to those who live near public transit hubs such as commuter trains. The Metro seems to always conveniently

Yes and they will be replaced "eventually" by Bombardier built cars that cost too much money, will be delivered late, are plagued with problems and are too big for the tunnels.. Meanwhile a Chinese firm bid on the job, included revamping the tracks for about 3/4 of what Bombardier charged. Ah but yes this is Montreal

The Paris Peugeot board meeting was hilarious!

Great piece... however I can only give 9.5/10 because there wan't an NSX-R that suddenly appeared from behind some well placed bushes..

Shocked they still have R32s GT-Rs in Japan after we Canadian's imported what felt like all them... or anything JDM that is older to be honest.

"Oh dear... now you've done it"

That's possibly why the cops were waiting as they weren't able to tow without causing severe damage.

Yep parking in the back is key. You don't get a dented car, you don't have to deal with the crowds and idiot drivers at the front. Usually if I'm going to Wal Mart I will park at the auto center as I am usually buying cleaners, oil and such there. You can get everything you need and check out without having to deal

That Acura ad is awesome! Gawd they made some nice cars in the 90s

Guy's its okay I watched this great film called 'Battleship" it proved that you can re activate a BB in a few short hours to fight a foreign force.. Seemed legit to me that the Navy even keeps live ammo stored aboard just in case..
