The poor blue Reliant Robin on Mr. Bean. Since the show was all about goofiness, there isn’t a goofier car to suffer the consequences of Rowan Atkinson’s antics with his Mini.

The 2cv in Le corniaud, because it is the only car i can imagine this happening to :

I owned a brown 1979 GS and I absolutely loved the perfect flat loading surface of the boot. The aircooled flat 4 also sounded a bit like an old Porsche sometimes. Oh and that wonderful hydraulic Citroën suspension. If it hadn’t rusted so much everywhere it would have been the perfect car.

I mean, I used to see them on the autobahn all the time. We had a Vega, sometimes they would even pass us.

If I stole your car and then sold it, I’d be looking at a few years behind bars. As long as companies and corporations can commit felonies and only have to pay fines, they’ll just keep doing the same things.

Towing companies and the racket that they legally run is one of those things about the US that folks elsewhere won’t believe when you tell them about it.

Only a $2000 penalty for stealing and selling a car that doesn’t belong to you? Yeah I’m sure they’ve really learned their lesson.

I’m going through a divorce. Whatever car I have left in the end will be my forever car.

Jut look at this beauty, with a much lower estimate:

Hydropneumatics a weak point? They were actually excellent suspensions.
Only when you bought a BX as a banger/shitbox in the late 90s or early 2000s, and left cracked or weeping hydraulic lines unfixed because you bought the car for like €500, it would become a weak point.
Today, hydropneumatic ‘analog’ Citroens are…

Definitely my favorite Group B car. It’s so gloriously weird. As it should be since it’s a Citroen.

The BX’s nose reportedly had to be lengthened to accommodate the pivot to a longitudinal layout, from the passenger car’s transverse setup.

My hero is my buddy who bought, er, I mean adopted from Cambodia, an infant as a single guy. That kid grew up in an NA Miata, driven year-round in *Maine*. Was his only car until he got married when the kid was a teenager. He got the factory passenger airbag bypass switch for it for the sprog seat. Kid is in college…

Used Tesla S with the third row is pretty hard to beat. Interior is Tonka Toy quality so might as well add in the kids (4x) to complete the aesthetic. Seriously though, it works amazingly well as a family beater once you accept its not a luxury car.

Took my wife to the hospital to have our son in our ‘71 Beetle.  Picked her up in a ‘72 Buick Roadmonster Estate Wagon.  With the wagon, instead of taking everything we needed for the kid in the Beetle, we could take everything we had for the kid in the Buick, including the Beetle.

It was the moment my dad picked me up from middle school in his 1989. For context, this was roughly 2002, in the US. I hadn’t yet realized not every household had a diesel sedan with a manual transmission and pneumatic suspension.

Kinda sad to read this. I’ve heard and read all about the Chinese BRI... I also visited Montenegro a few years ago as a family member was stationed in Podgorica with the State Dept. What an absolutely beautiful country with amazing driving roads. My wife and I drove from Zagreb, Croatia all the way down the Adriatic…

There are definitely bigger ones out there, but smaller ones too. Like this one. Or even those with a normal van body.

This looks like every other RV out there that clogs our roads. About average sized. It’s below 3.5 tonnes, so you don’t need a special trucker driving license to drive one.

Cool! My 48k (which I was gifted in the late 80s by an older cousin who used to write reviews for one of the Speccy mags, hence the shit ton of games) died in the 90s. I bought the 128 on a whim in Cambridge around 2004. I’ll deffo get the games out next time I’m at my folks (not had me jabs yet) and see what happens.…
