So reliable that it had to be completely rebuilt at 80k.

Such a beautiful Frankenstein, But Frankenstein nonetheless. For the same money you can get a 2008 S4 Avant with 1/2 the miles...

I can’t handle a lap dance, which I imagine is mandatory for owning this vehicle. 

Edit: Thanks to Squirrels and States I now know it comes with a shoulder harness from the opposite side.

huh!  Thanks for the clarification.  

Call me New Fashioned, but a 1992 car with only lap belts seems scary to me. Like using only the rhythm method to stay kid-free.  

That is the most hatchbacky non-hatchback I’ve ever paid attention to.  I’d love to se it in my next door neighbor’s driveway.

I never would have thought of Bill Maher on a stripper pole, but to each his own Rob; kinda like the Modyssey.

It’s like having a 50 year old stripper as your girlfriend and she named herself Modusty. Sure, it’s interesting, but not sure why.

It’s the Ted Bundy of modifications: good looks on the outside and an absolute death trap once you get inside...

I could have sworn it was done on the TV show too.  Ahh, only 20 years ahead of it’s time regardless.

Edit: the loop was done in the TV show Blue Thunder. Yes, this was a productive 50 minutes of my time realizing there were TWO helicopter themed TV shows in the 80s (Magnum P.I. and Riptide don’t count).

CP for me. BUT, I can totally understand someone thinking this is the best thing since Jan Michael-Vincent did the full loop-de-loop in his chopper in Air Wolf.

$15/hp is a pretty sweet place to be.  To fix the odds and ends from splitting might be another $1,500, but still in a great sub $20/hp territory.

The V50 is a perfectly cromulent car.  

It has all the excitement of 401k.  A great price, you know it makes sense, and when it rallies you get a small smile on your face.  But you’re not gonna be talking about it at parties and no one will ask you about it either.

In my baboon’s defense....he’s not as hairy as Burt.
