I mean....it’s CP, clearly. But you’re not entirely wrong. A nice low-mile clean example of a regular Roadmaster wagon is surprisingly not cheap right about now. You’re in the ten grand range, give or take. Now add that this is a well-done custom with good provenance, and it’s not just some weird junker... it actually…

So, nowhere in your article does it explain how these flights are cheaper. The headline says they are cheaper. Are they? I wouldn't think they would be.... Lots of missing info here. 

Why do you need a good memory to recall something that was very well publicised at the time? It wasn’t some obscure thing that few people were aware of. Anyone old enough should have no trouble recognising the original iMac design for what it is.

And he’s supposedly an Audi enthusiast, so something he should be able to do in his sleep at this point. Was ready to hit NP, but then dead display, engine light, and German over design. I’ve made that mistake once, never again. I learned the hard way that easy fixes are never easy fixes on German cars.

The wildest car story of my life came from something like this.

To make a long story short, I sold a car on ebay. Buyer was a south african scammer.

But he wasn’t. Yes he was south african, but I told him i has to pick up the car in person with cash I see him get at a bank. thought the scammer would go away, but instead…

this may be the tiny convertible for you, 5 11 and there was still space above my eye line on the windshield when i test drive one. In a miata with factory seats I am alwasy staring at the windshield frame. 

This is specifically the car I target. If this was in my area I would buy it.


No I will not buy it and fly there to pick it up and drive it home. But if it were local, I’d buy it.

The reason I love cars like this is because you can buy it, Enjoy it, Clean it up, and resell it a year later for approximately the price you…

AHHHH!!! What kind of monster just rides around with their shift knob all sideways like that? Now I need to go look at this car and pose as a buyer just so I can straighten that out.

I’d love scooters to be more mainstream.

Neutral: I want a maxi-scooter, not a Harley.

I like these, I especially like what people do with these, but cheese that’s a lot of money for one.

Despite the work looking to have been done to a decent level of quality, isn’t there an admonition about “somebody else’s project”?

Just buy Nokian tires, they are the best tires I’ve ever had in my life. They’re used as police tires in Sweden and some USA departments. Nothing stops these tires and they aren’t that expensive ($100-$200 per tire maximum). They are the only tires I ever buy.

This whole “car is masculine or feminine” thing needs to die.

I don’t know, I saw a BMW with working turn signals the other day.

I mean, I’m biased. Because this one is mine. But a used one, (2009 or later, to avoid SMOD) will leave you plenty of money to build it up a bit, and still have lots of gas money!

Calm down mega off road fan boys. Audrey by off-road probably means dirt tracks not rock crawling. “...narrow dirt paths, but not untouched country”

This 2005 Magnum R/T

No shared lineage with the Audi. BMW M division cars on the other hand share a bit of history with the Capri, BMW poached the guy who made the Capri all conquering and put him in charge of the development of the M cars

I’m going on the record as um… yeah, you know what? I dig it.
