We just got that too in Western Australia. The difference is the way those idiots enforce the payment. Add a levy on you regular insurance? HA! That would be too easy. Add a levy to your drivers license fee? PFT!! You wish!! We got slugged an extra $100 per vehicle registration per year because apparently I can drive…

I love me some street legal Lola F1 car:

High speed ring in GT4?

Now, let’s be clear: the issues this guy was having are not related to the car being RWD, like millions and millions of other cars. The danger is from driving on bald tires.

Should point out that the truck (ute) parked on the side of the road isn’t on the shoulder but in a designated stopping bay. The emergency telephone on the pole is a giveaway. We get told to stop there if we are having car trouble or need to use a phone.

Yep. You see it a lot in the courts in Australia. Person high on ice causes pileup while driving a stolen car on a suspended license. Courts issue a few months in jail and add a hefty fine to the existing fine the addict will never pay. You can almost hear the judge mutter “see you in 6 months” as they are led form…

I’ll pay the BMW but both are a lot more than welding proof of concepts. There are several examples of both that are registered and being used on the road. Look up the builder, he has been building some interesting vehicles for a very long time for road use.

Have you ever seen them in the same place at the same time? I haven’t...

Fezza V8 bike:

Because it’s protecting the value of the brand.

I think the problem is in order to buy one to begin with (in Ferrari style) you have to be a well documented purchaser and driver of Astons to be invited to put a deposit down.

5. Original purchaser gets black listed by Aston for not being more selective about who they gifted their car to.

Good luck with that. She’d probably mix up the lube with the Sriracha.

Came here for this gif. Not disappointed.

“No Niki, I’m keeping the ears”.

and a lot of existentialism. Followed by randomly singing phrases from “I’m walkin’ on sunshine” only to stop when I’m interrupted by a noise that may or may not be coming from the engine and then when I’m finally convinced it was nothing, maybe a rock off the road, back to the self loathing.

Our old cat used to freak out on car trips. After a while we figured out she just wanted to be on the back shelf with the stereo on really low and stare at people behind us.

Did 9 hours between Sydney and Melbourne once. By the end the conversations I was having with myself were strange and confronting.

My go to is an old iPhone with a pre-paid sim card in it hooked up to a USB battery pack. The whole thing is small and slim so it fits everywhere (even under the seat of a motorbike) and runs for a week without needing a charge and when it does I just swap out the battery pack.
