I’m pretty sure the Focus STs electric limited slip diff works in the way the OP stated. I think what you’re referring to is a mechanical diff.

You’ve done better than me so far.

Too bad I’m a loser and don’t know half the people it would take to get a free car.

Boo H1. Give me my bro dozer!

I think if someone offers up a car for far less than what it’s worth then good for the buyer. Like some people have said if the buyer actively tries to persuade the seller their car isn’t worth as much as it really is then yes that is dishonest.

Where’s the part where it blows its head gasket? Not accurate then.

And I think an auto to manual swap on a Civic is hard...

There was a guy that lived down the street from me that had an old Mach-1 Mustang just sitting in his driveway. After a couple years he finally moved it in the garage. I remember driving by and thinking what the hell is he thinking leaving that car outside. Good thing it never got this far gone. It’s really a shame.

You beat me to it!

I live in the US and things are pretty much the same for me. Don’t listen to everything you hear on the news.

Yeah tell me how that works out for ya.

I tried that. My dog is scared of my cat.

Apparently I can’t cut the cat off my car. Something about environment or whatever.

Sounds pretty Jeremy Clarkson to me.

There’s always been something intriguing about 90's crapcan cars. I guess maybe it’s the fact that with current regulations we will never see anything close to this ever again.

My 2013 Mazdaspeed3 and my 1965 Ford Mustang. I think it’s the best compromise between old and new. I have no plans to sell either. Actually the Mustang was my first car. I’ve owned it since May of ‘04.

At least it’s a permanent escape from monotony. If that monotony is having a boring reliable car.

Very good write up. I always love to read about the before and after of neglected vehicles.

I’m glad i live in Texas. I’ve got my own garage and driveway. Living like that would probably drive me crazy.

If those bastards would ever put a turbo on it?
