I own a shit ton of “air rifles” and no one needed to tell me i had to have a locked guncase to carry them around. I have been pulled over by the police several times with replicas and air rifles in the trunk, and every time my priority is making sure the officer who i’m talking to feels safe when inspecting my air…

Absolutely, although i think the brand loyalty they bought(the insurance company) with this is worth way more than 422 used(some very used) cars.

Really? Crimes? i mean, assuming it’s not for a terrorist or otherwise criminal organization, where is the crime?

Meanwhile, at Toyota...

Those black accents around the headlights make them look like they came from a shady ebay shop. Reminds me of that plastic fantastic interior on the SLR... nasty!

When i saw the axe i thought “I pity the dude who tries to rob this thing with the driver in it”.

That’s true, those types of insurance can get ridiculously expensive here(compared to the average income) and the ongoing financial crisis means people start cutting back on those kinds of expenses and downgrading their insurance packages.

Oh, i’m sure the insurance companies hesitated plenty... But it’s a very small country and all of it’s eyes are watching this situation unfold, a refusal by the company would cost them alot more than 422 used cars(brand equity and such).

UPDATE 2: The festival’s own fire insurance will handle all the claims, regardless of each owner’s coverage.Great new for anyone affected by the fire.

110+ temperatures plus all the dry vegetation will do that to a parking lot.

The festival has fire insurance, news just broke that it will cover any and all claims, regardless of the coverage each owner had on his car.

UPDATE - the police investigators just ruled out arson, good news for the people who saw their cars destroyed, as the insurance companies can start processing all the claims without waiting for a criminal investigation.

With all the older, more desirable SL’s out there i just don’t see the value here. Sure, the market value on a good SL will always go up eventually, but for the R129 i’m afraid it’s going to take a while. That coupled with the huge maintenance costs make this CP material, although that rare hardtop certainly makes the…

The fugly cab is so that other drivers stay away and don’t go near it? brilliant! Autopilot is saved!

It’s russia, R8 driver probably doesn’t give a fuck

I think while most automakers are scrambling to develop smaller and cheaper cars for the younger generation, japanese automakers are sitting on these amazing kei cars. At least some models would kill on the global market, wish we had them.

I wasn’t talking about the stock yugo(in any form), i was refering to that twin-v8 monstrosity of a yugo that SmugAardvark posted in the comments(http://jalopnik.com/i-know-yugo-en…). Check out the video, it’s insane.

Can’t have recce notes without that Sega Rally gem “Overjump, maybe”

My trolleys make subaru noises and the supermarket lanes are suddenly made of loose dirt and gravel, so yeah... right there with ya, buddy.

Elon, it’s time to yank the autopilot feature, people clearly aren’t ready to deal with it’s current limitations. It sucks to backpedal on a dream, but let’s face reality here.
