One thing about Utrecht (and the Netherlands generally): car drivers are automatically liable for any injury or damage in an accident with a pedestrian or cyclist.

If you had both hands on the wheel you wouldn’t need an armrest..........

Thank You! Exactly why I love my SVX. Car from bygone era, sporty but not a sports car... maybe not cheapest or easiest to maintain, not that much fuel efficient, but... lovely daily commuter.

Someone needs to do one of these with Ronin.

If you want a great GT car, this isn’t your worst choice. Put an exhaust on it and people will think it’s some italian exotic. You will blow the trans, it’s just a question of when. You can even do some track events in it.

I demand “If found please return to Jalopnik”

Buying a Honda Insight is still the worst decision he’s ever made, a problem somehow solved by the second worst decision he’s ever made.

According to a Volvo dealer that’s “in the know” it will NOT come with optional rear facing seats. Sorry.

They dropped these from the current-gen XC70 though apparently you can still get them as dealer installed options. Sadly wouldn’t be shocking to see them dropped from the new one, since they require protecting a larger passenger cabin. Its easy to see Volvo being content to just point people who’d need them to the…

And the model s.

Care to let me rent your car for a weekend? I promise I'll have it sani-detailed afterwards!

I bought my 6MT 2012 C30 when it was two years old and it’s been a wonderful (almost) two years now. The car is big enough, comfortable, and with the Polestar tune and the stick, it’s a hoot. The 5-cylinder turbo lets out a beautiful burble akin to a mini V10 at full throttle and it’ll kick you in the pants before you…

Oh I see your problem, you had been driving an early 90’s Honda, those cars are so much better then they should be, and it makes most new cars feel terrible.

Oh god yes. I have a stock 1990 2.2 manual Accord right now. Tight as a drum at 158k and 32 mpg freeway. I have thought about replacing it and test drove a few cars including a 2015 MT Dodge Dart 2.4T and it was incredible...I hated the Dart. It felt numb, slow, tall and nasty inside and after about 3 miles of test…

I will tell you, the first change I made to mine was a solid rear engine mount. That $100 hockey puck fixed the sloppy shifting and did wonders to eliminate the overly soft feel. The steering still isn’t great, and the ride is a little floaty. But, I still like it (and like that I go weeks without seeing another one).

I have lusted after this car since it came out. I have refused to test drive one unless its a manual and none have appeared within a few hours drive since I graduated and got my big boy job. I have a bull mastiff that loves to travel but does not fit on people car seats which limits smaller cars and I have an affinity…

It’s the wife swapping picture that completes the Frenchness

Nobody expects a Ferrari in any other color but red! However, we all know a Ferrari can be any one of five colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, White, Brown, and grey
