Ah, yes very good point. Modern cars need so much servicing that who you get to do it makes a huge difference.

Thank you. The best wurst pun had to be made but I couldn’t figure out how to work it in.

Agreed, it’s old school North Euro cooking.

Well if it don’t blow your head clean off it aint much of a curry. ;)

First time I had it I expected a, you know, curried German Sausage, so when the guy just splooged a bunch of ketchup over a normal sausage then sprinkled it with curry powder I was a bit put out.

Gute fahrt!

I dunno, I’ve got a 200k+ Golf and it’s going quite nicely (yes it’s a 1.8T), maybe all the other owners paid for the unreliable bits? I doubt it, it had apparently been serviced by monkeys previously.

Definitely a good idea.

Whoops! Should have edited my post.

So, I wonder is this just China taking a leaf out of N. Korea’s book and engaging in fantasy propaganda bluster, but with added production values?

Welcome to the UK.

Yeah I was trying to make it out, but my Spanglish is the Euro variety.

I know right?

The chassis is pretty damn durable so far as it goes, the rust proofing is pretty shite though. I’m constantly amazed at trendy Defender owners who are apparently content to let their rear crossmembers rot away before their very eyes. “Have you considered , you know, painting it?” It’s not rocket science ffs.

That said, there are more difficult vehicles to rebuild than a Defender.

Where in Spain did they fly you to?

Range, torque.

I remember him saying that a diesel R-R or a Golf are the only cars 99% of people need.

No.

That’s more than asshole, that’s plain evil.
