I remember an episode when they found the car was too damaged to be fixed, so they pulled a Scion XB and pimped it.

An Argentine vinyl workshop did it with the BTCC Renault Laguna Nescafe. Maybe Kinja will let me put an Instagram link; if not, look for @corderoplotter.

Damn, I was going at the other end of the dial with my suggestion!

Jalopnik 2023: “All that’s wrong with my year-79 chariot”

macherone: Nice, so David bought another ‘79 Wagoneer and... oh dear.

This Farley guy surely could tell some big fellow at Ford that the Puma needs to be another global car, like the Ranger, Mustang and Escape.

Obviously they would keep doing what worked with the B13 Sentra, I mean, Tsuru.

Here in Colombia Marches are in a good place for Uber drives and rentals, I wonder if Mexican Ubers are Versas or just “Marchitos”.

It looks terrible, but terribly good. Like a well-crafted lounge suit with a little golden spoon hanging in the chest. NP.

No. I talk from the Colombian market, which is nearer to Chile than to Mexico for Toyota. Fortuners are Hilux-based, Prados are BOF with their own platforms. Also, the Fortuner has a reputation of being softer and less rugged than the 4Runner (which is also sold here), while the Prado is the government and armored…

You’re not supposed to be joking. You’re not supposed to be flawed at anything. You’re supposed to be perfect and getting viral about how oh so great is your car. Anything less will make your stock tick down and it’s an inmediate reason to chop your head and find another advertiser who would sing praises at your…

I don’t know what will be worse: Claro Williams / Pérez or Claro Haas / Pérez.

It’s a Renault Kwid (you know, the one Jason tried a few days ago) but with an electric engine. And the cheap brand, obviously. It’s like seeing a VW ID3 skate under a Skoda Fabia body.

Blazers and XJ Cherokees were beloved in Colombia. Especially by guerrillas. At the turn of the century, the Farc and ELN leaders used to kidnap Blazer and Cherokee owners, steal their cars and hold quite a ransom, assuming they were rich by driving an American SUV.

Of course, real rich people and drug dealers didn’t…

Obviously McLaren, but Lotus was a solid third in the Senna years. Look what his teammates, especially De Angelis, did in those seasons.

I know it’s not the place, but I can’t pass over how this beautiful movie is being sold in Latin America. Ford v Ferrari is being translated as “Contra lo imposible” (Against the impossible).

How could they even.

What is impossible about blowing millions of dollars out of spite? What is impossible about one of the…

Apart from the obvious Prost vs. Senna “Rush 2: Now with teammates”, I’d love a movie about Michele Mouton and Group B.

Neutral: destroy every single speed camera.

Jason, there is an issue with your Peugeot 5008 idea. It’s a compact, Ford Escape - size, 1.6 liter engined, crossover.

I know you want to think big, but I would believe it would be easier to make a Chrysler Imperial from a Grand Cherokee or something like that than a small (for you Americans, in Yurop and South…

And have 15 hp more! (At least the Colombian ones, with an ancient 84 hp 1.4 liter engine. The cars sold in Brazil and Argentina have a whooping 1.3 liter, 100 hp engine, flex fuel capable).

For now, “il Kaapo”. When (if) he wins the Stanley Cup, “dei tutti Kaapi”.

To be fair, Magary, I don’t really like football. I’m Colombian, for fuck’s sake. But God bless the medics, Megan and every single one responsible of you being still alive, still writing these columns.
