My 04 CLK diesel does that, the “button” at the end of the gas pedal forces a downshift. Not always what you want, especially in a diesel, so it’s good to be able to choose.

FYI, EZTV(cough) sufered a hostile takeover perpetrated by a hacker group. I wouldn’t touch their stuff with a 10 foot pole now...

It all just felt so awkward. Also, if you are going to comedy up the rules and results at every turn, don’t bother calling it a challenge, it’s insulting.

Alcacer do Sal is just my type of place in Portugal, love it. And if you want to rock a vintage 4x4 in Portugal there is only one choice, the Portuguese made UMM Alter, guaranteed to drive you insane bankrupt you twice as fast as a Range Rover Defender. Does look cool though.

The tiny turbo comes from my previous car (1.2 turbo twingo), and i have recently been handed down a Dacia Duster (my dad’s not so subtle hint that he wants grandchildren soon). The Dacia is quite literaly a 04-08 generation Renault Megane(sold in 2013) estate on stilts. Same engine, same interior, same infuriating…

As villain names go, Gaston Trefault is right up there.

I want to tell you all a story. When i was 13 years old i caught rides from school on my buddie’s scooter sometimes. Of course no helmet. Although it was only about half a mile of back alleys, someone spotted me and told my dad about it.

That’s what i was thinking(I’m Portuguese) “these people have no idea the kind of clusterfuck that was avoided”. Thank god for the fire department’s incredible readiness and quick reaction to prevent a much bigger tragedy.

Portuguese cobblestone, the bane of any would be boy racer.

#COTD , that never gets old

Damn, did that thing crash through a Renault junkyard? So many Renault parts... Gorgeous though.

Easy NP this week, for 1700 you could just thrash it’s wheels off until something goes wrong and part the car out. You would be making your money back and then some! Hell, for the price it’s at, you could go the oposite route and spend 8-10k on a top to bottom restoration and just keep the thing forever.

I feel for you man, not having peace in your own home can drain the life out of you so fast.

WTF!? Who stole the moon buggy designs i did in grade school? NP all day for a rare car that is almost guaranteed to come around in value.

True, that kind of money buys you a decent used“kartcross” buggy, same kind of power but with proper off road chops, not to mention a harness and rollcage.

Hella expensive though, makes the whole thing a bit pointless, but hey. Shiny!

3 words, ktm duke 125.

I just call them car muggles

In my top 10 comedy bits ever.

I don’t see it, the people who are into putting bikes together are not the people who buy “brand new “ anything.
