@vavon205: Not if I haz it first.

Reg/ins/owner's manual in the original rubbery-brown pouch, a clutch of old, partially-oxidized lead fuses, an original Wedge Antilles action figure and a partially-disassembled VDO Kienzle clock.

@Chevydogger: No, see, the topic is "soft roader." Trooper and Trooper II were fully combat-ready. Yours looks doubly-so.

@vwminispeedster, pronounded Si-trow-in: Thank you for posting a basket of French-fried deliciousness.

@vavon205: Having owned one for a number of years, the Mk11 Golf need not appear in the classification suggested by the caption.

@Hugo Becker: Hmm, let's not leave out the fact that the firewall appears to actually be composed of a giant, pre-glycol radiator.

@Elhigh: Ironically, most "big wheels" as I recall, came with a side-mounted hand brake, specifically for the purpose of oversteering.

@Neil Davidson: Oh, yes indeed. Depending on braking, lateral force and the speed at which you lift off the throttle, the Mk1 GTI would happily flip from understeer to oversteer. Experienced this first hand several times myself.

@jodark: Huh. And I always thought that logo was for supporting fruits.

@tastypotatoes: I stand by my original reply to vavon205.

@vavon205: I know it isn't actually the case, but I've always thought of the McLaren's looks as a byproduct of its performance and functionality, while the Veron's appearance could have been designed first to look like a SiFi channel CGI space ship then the performance was engineered to support the Bugatti image of…

My father had a 1986 Lebaron with a digital instrument cluster. The speedometer would read normally on the freeway, then dart from 65mph to 0, up to 80 or so, back to 0, then occasionally would revisit the actual speed of 65. It would also burn up several MAP sensors a year.

If Tool videos were powered by Ford, this is what they'd look like.

@Novaload: The Nova camping tent. That's just fantastic.

@FjordGreenPorsche: Dear God, what is that? Please tell me that is a high-school shop project, not a production block.

While the story sounds kind of interesting, the production looks lame. V8 (not flat 6) sound, other noteable silliness...

@79pinto: To be fair, you never know when you might need to tow a Russian airliner on the way to the kids' soccer practice.

@FrankGrimes: Hmmm...You may have to be stupid to drive a Smart, but stupidity + brazen = entertaining to others [not boring]. Similar to daily-drving a Hummer.
