I think this started in Japan many years ago. Then Taiwan (since Japan occupied Taiwan for 50 years) had it as a farming aid (to replace the water buffalo), then this went to China.
Not yet. I assume it's coming eventually but then the current Micra seems to exist to be the cheapest thing you can buy.
I’ve never wrenched on that specific model of Renault, but yes, lots of incredibly simple French cars out there.
Odd engine coolant and oil leak into the combustion chamber on an old ex-rally Dodge Shadow. Initial thoughts, bad head gasket. Took off head and yes obvious signs of leaking. Swap out gasket all is good for a few more races. Until.
In 1971, my 1968 Ford Cortina GT started having intermittent spells of running on three (out of four cylinders). Using my limited diagnostic skills, I determined that it was probably an electrical problem, but every thing checked out. My usual “brute force and ignorance” mechanical methods did nothing to solve the…
BMW X6 (and frankly all SUVs driving almost entirely within city limits). Look at this fucking ugly assholemobile that only exists because of BMWs greed and to destroy the planet for maximum douchebaggery. It is the perfect synonym of shit we as a mankind cant afford to ignore and to do anymore. Fuck this horrible…

Damn that thing is beautiful in a malaise sort of guilty pleasure way.
The looks of this car don’t really do that much for me, but if it drives even remotely like a Honda S660, it’s fantastic. I rented an S660 on a vacation to Japan and of all the great things that country has to offer, drivng that little Honda for a few days was hands down the best experience of that trip. One day I…
Too early in the morning for this sort of thing man
Counterpoint: 6 speed manual.
there IS no other market old school land barge with a V8 except the US. After all they are in business of selling vehicles, not limited edition relics.

Is that a wooden bumper, or are you just happy to see me?
