Seriously? Think of it like a 3d jigsaw. They are great for introspection time, and just awesome for defining personal space. You won’t find an educator who won’t tell you how good they are at motor skills development and learning how to visualize in 3d. Visit a dorm in any engineering college, and you’ll find Lego in…

Here in the Rockies, a collapsible snow shovel and a space blanket

You could get a pair of huntin’ dogs and some Purdies in the bag of that!

Seems to me there’s a bit of distinction between rich and wealthy here. Rich people drive Cullinans, but they don’t have quite enough money to have multiple.

Any educator will tell you that having a handgun in a holster in a classroom is a recipe for disaster.

Don’t sweat it man, there’s little in British 70's cars that did not reflect the available engineering standards of the time across all industrial products in all industrialized nations. We joke about Lucas electrics, but what went into American products (or indeed Japanese) at the time were no better in any…

Why not just push the wiper control away from you to get one pass on the rear? That’s what I do on my XC70. Incidentally, I love the flap that comes up in the luggage area to control half a load of shopping from rattling around.

Want to replace it like-for-like? I’ve got an un-modded 2011 WRX premium. I’m 60 this year, and I’ve owned it since new. It’s been Turo’d for a year, but I’ve done all the mantenance, new clutch etc. It’s got a nice Android Auto/Carplay head unit installed, and a reversing camera. optional roof-rack. let me know

Did hand-over when I got my UK license in 1978

Exactly. Ain’t nothing that won’t fit in the back of a Subaru outback. Even 8 foot lengths of framing timber if the passenger moves behind the driver with the 60/40 rear seat split

This is very much a difference between EU and US tests - Pedestrians are everywhere, and vehicle manufacturers are required to consider the consequences of, and minimize damage to them in collisions. That’s why things like bull bars are generally illegal in EU countries - They can turn what might be a collision with a…

Only that it perhaps gives the perception of everything associated with a "salvage title". Nonetheless, a beautiful piece of restoration work, and a good waste of 10 minutes watching it.

Standard gauge may well be standard, but loading gauge most definitely isn’t. Rolling stock in the UK is smaller than almost anywhere else due to bridges etc. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_gauge

England, UK??? WTF, someone needs to learn a little bit of basic geography. Also, what about us Brits who live in this thing called The Mountain Time Zone?

So a good few years ago, I pulverized my right arm, from the elbow down. I couldn’t drive stick for about 6 months. one of the big problems with hand injuries is the (obvious) loss of fine motor skills in both hands, and you would be amazed at the things you can have problems with. One of the biggies in this scenario…

Next up, a mustang advert by Michael Bay.....

As a 60 year old with a wrx, I say "huh?"

This is what happens when a great engineer doesn’t understand that visual design is a completely different subject. Form does not necessarily follow function

How much of the cost though, is classic OEM markup? For example the list price of a rear parking sensor for my XC70 is about $50, so $200 for 4. But an ebay generic sensor set, which does exactly the same thing is less than $30 for a set of 4

As a Brit in his 60s , I can absolutely say that at no time ever have Asians been included in the term ‘black’ in the UK. There’s plenty of targeted racist epiphets to go round, thank you very much
