It’s getting harder and harder to find good, honest car mechanics for the ordinary man in Hong Kong, now that cars are getting priced far out of the normal person’s income. Most people who can afford to own cars will tend to stick with dealership warranties. My dad’s been using the same mechanic for nigh on 30 years…

Ever heard of how Hong Kong is one of the most expensive cities in the world to rent?

Yes. But they don’t make the cars on this list. Nissan’s Tennessee & Mississippi plants don’t produce the Sentra, Versa or NV200. And none of Toyota’s Kentucky, Indiana, Texas or Mississippi plants produce the Yaris iA or double-cab Tacoma. I think you underestimate how much it costs for a plant to expand their…

Ta-dah.

Really? I mean really.

Apologies I meant £20,000 less.

Sorry I meant less - that’s the main appeal of the Mustang, it’s £20,000 less than comparable competition. That’s why it’s so popular.

Sorry I meant less, I’m pretty tired.

Fuck yes I do, god I’m tired.

Well no, because the Mustang is, near as makes no difference, nearly £20,000 more than an M3 or C63 yet offers great sporting performance and is much cheaper to tune.

A lot. As of April last year, more than 16,000 orders were placed for European Mustangs. And for us Brits who haven’t had good V8 muscle in years ever since the Holden Monaro died, the majority of Mustang sales in the UK are V8 models, even with our ridiculously high fuel prices.

Look at the tracks in the ground, seems like they did the runs a few times before.

What, like what Cadillac offered on the ‘54 Eldorado? Called (or nicknamed) the Bullet Wheel, it took Sammy Davis Jr’s left eye out in a crash.

Because used cars in the UK generally have poor resale values. People struggle to sell them outside of the UK because RHD, and all vehicles have to go mandatory testing. It’s just easier to scrap them and make a bit of cash. The UK introduced a scrappage scheme in 2009. The government would provide up to £1000…

Nah, you can drink it. It’s just that after flushing out your plate, bowl, chopsticks and teacup you’re not left with much tea. You don’t have to flush them out anyway, it’s just an old cultural hangover.

As someone who has been living in Hong Kong for 7 years, it’s odd seeing people fawn over stuff like this...

I’m pretty sure these won’t be silent, the electric motors in the Model S can whine pretty loudly.

There’s also this racing version I saw in Nagoya a few months ago.

Aren’t millennials classified as 18-34? :P
