David Tracy can now get a brand-new Jeep for the same cost as his normal rusty shitboxes!

I just love Small Government™ Republicans and their support of Personal Freedoms®.

That’s a shitload of downforce.

The best, and it’s funny Calder had no interest in it, he designed it and they painted it, they brought it to him in a truck and he just looked at it a bit. There are a couple very good replicas, if I could afford it I would build one. 

We own more or less this car (ours has a red interior). It’s stunning, and after a year of ownership, we still aren’t tired of looking at it.

I cut myself today
To see if I am still strong
I let the car slide away
The only way I could
The curb it tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to resist the tear
But I am too dry rotted

I cannot give you enough stars for this.

I’d daily a DAF anyday.

Ooh a lagonda in it’s natural state, with the electronics partially disassembled.

The link says 2.1 lbs not Kg.

my grandfather had one of those, it talked!

It was a sad attempt in Austin Rover’s dying days to flog that long expired badge engineering horse one more time. It fooled no one.

What’s amazing is that, the barrier islands/peninsulae around Jamaica Bay excluded, you only need to seal 3 openings to the sea:
1) East River/Long Island Sound btwn Bronx and Queens (would be debated where to place the works, but the vicinity of the Whitestone/Throgs Neck bridges would probably be most feasible/cost

They’re working on that and have hired Dutch firms to design the plans. That includes some wetland restoration and barrier projects and raising infrastructure (and that’s just the preliminary stuff).

I’ve seen a German receiver on the Internet and it definitely is NOT GREAT (unless you’re into that kind of thing)

basically. you can get a 330 all day long for 10k it pretty damn good shape too.

What's the reliability/repairs like on those X-types? Are they typical NNNGH SO BRITISH or had the Ford partnership tamed their stereotypical issues?

Still the slowest, Viper-est sounding bus I've ever driven.

the mc12 is on the federal s and d list and one would expect it to be used under those terms.
