Re: Let's talk about cars

Bloody deer are a pain in the butt around here too, almost as much as the drivers.
Just this Thursday evening gone I had to get a local to pull me out of a ditch. A New Jersey townie who didn't know...

Re: Let's talk about cars

:thumbsup:

Sorry for delay, only just opened this thread after my last reply. I can't remember what the stealership said was the problem but I don't think I took much notice at the time. I have it...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Feel for you, that's the same shitty transmission that's in our Focus. Luckily US owners had already finished hauling Ford over the coals when we bought without knowing of the problem. So, we get 3...

Re: Let's talk about cars

How is it that after 100+ years of employing methods to reduce cabin noise that manufacturers can't use something to make noise outside without it being heard in the cabin, it's not as though the...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Lol, I was thinking of the 380's baby sister, my old GT185, when I wrote about high revving two strokes. It was the most skittish machine I've ever ridden, no doubt quite tame when fitted with...

Re: Let's talk about cars

I didn't own a car for many of my 30 motoring years in the UK, I was that stereotypical grungy grebo that many of the US cruiser types try to mimic with their pre-faded leathers and bovver boots,...

Re: Let's talk about cars

For a car with a larger engine, it is barely working at speeds little over tickover, one of the reasons I'd trust a higher mileage US car when compared to a UK one with an 1100cc engine that has to...

Re: Let's talk about cars

What about using A/C in hot climates, does the same not apply or using your wipers in places like Britain where it only stops raining on every sixth Thursday?
I'm going to assume that all the fancy...

Re: Let's talk about cars

If we haven't pulled our fingers out by then and already have made significant changes I don't suppose that order will do anything more than trigger the deniers. I am going to play devil's advocate...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Gotcha, so something that can scrape in at just 25 years old rather than an earlier 60's classic drool machine. ;) Sorry, I can't help, just being nosy.

If you want a Walkinshaw inspired vehicle...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Do you have an engine or model type in mind? They change out their engines more often than some people change their underpants.

Re: Let's talk about cars

That is like the concept of the Dutch bicycle, have you ever ridden one of those contraptions? They sound great in theory and the locals make it look like a doddle but if you're used to having proper...

Re: Let's talk about cars

I'm getting a little twitchy as my Tundra's 150k transmission flush is coming up - which wouldn't be so bad but I know it didn't get it's 90k flush.... or it's 120k flush... and I haven't got the...

Re: Let's talk about cars

I'm a chain fan too. I've replaced the belt on an older 3L V6 Accord, wasn't too tricky but if it were a chain I wouldn't likely have had to do it for another 100k miles.

Re: Let's talk about cars

Technically speaking we're a one car family. If it has used two tankfuls since March I'd be surprised, although modom went back to school two weeks ago so it's now back up to normal usage. As for my...

Re: Let's talk about cars

And as we're on a Mustang theme, I saw on the news this morning that they are giving the (non-retro) Mustang an electric drive train with gen-u-ine vroom, vroom sound option.

Re: Let's talk about cars

I did the timing belt on my wife's '04 Honda Accord a few years back. It was easy enough but would have been much easier if I had small hands like the average oick!! The average Asian car builder...

Re: Let's talk about cars

B series Mazda count? It was quite a while back, bench seats, nasty gear stick arrangement, after the Renault 4 it was the most basic vehicle I've ever driven, reliable enough though. Back then the...

Re: Let's talk about cars

My last paragraph was a dig at the big three credit reporting agencies, I should have been a little clearer when I said 'credit companies', I didn't mean finance institutions.

You need to have debt to have a good credit score, if you can afford to live without debt it doesn't matter what your score is!
