AMEN Sister. I'm a European and I acknowledge the level of racism across our fair landmass but it varies massively from country to country and from region to region. There are parts of the UK that are far more racist than parts of Italy but Italy is far less progressive overall when it comes to multiculturalism. Our…

Yeah, why can't the Overlord of All Europe sort out these problems which we as Citizens of Unified Europe are all responsible for? We voted them in, after all! And how silly of us to forget that America is rendered an immunity to any and all criticism whenever anything bad happens anywhere else in the world. How dare…

We had one of these when I was a kid.

Not many cars didn't suck in the 80s. A DS in the late 50s compared to the rest of the automotive landscape was apples to oranges vs a CX in the 80s.

“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.”

Cue the mindless idiotic "jealous" tripe ...

It is a blessing and a curse. I've had to un-friend many an idiot but I also got to witness the transformation of a girl I knew in high school who was a self-professed "bimbo" into a thoughtful and socially active feminist, all through the power of women's studies. It's probably way too gratifying for me, an outside…

Can we stop calling Breitbart News a "news website?" That's kind of like calling Pornhub a "performing arts website," except that the label wouldn't be as misleading for Pornhub or as insulting to performing arts.

As the son of parents who still drive their '86 Vanagon, and has driven it, I must promote your post! Hopefully I will inherit it one day. Or the Squareback, but I might have to fight my brother.

Wow. I suppose I was expecting the results to skew toward the CP end of the scale, but I have to say that I'm a little shocked that this swap is garnering so much negativity.

I kinda like it. I like the 2CV more, but eh, this thing's pretty cool, in its own way.

Really:

TTAC? Spread political misinformation and agitprop? Like, no way, man.

What a sensible and correct comment, its a proverbial storm in a teacup whipped up by people without understanding of how our VED system works.

Can you explain how Bosch D-Jetronic works? Oh, that's right.....they don't.

SD1 hands down

It was the 90's for me too. One of the bus companies that services our school had even older Leylands than the one above. One of which I was on when it caught fire. I was on my way to sport. Our team, teachers and driver were completely oblivious. An old bloke in a Kingswood saw the fire, cut in front of the bus to…

In Australia, our school buses are normal transit buses operated by both private companies and government owned depending on where you live. In some rarer cases, school routes operate both a school and regular paying service at the same time.

My 73 MGB had this, it's a manual overdrive in the transmission. Mine had a lockout on gears 1 and 2 and reverse. The switch for OD was on the wiper stalk.
