poo poo, all we get are diesel Focus and Astra patrol cars. Though the sight of a liveried Suzuki Wagon R or Smart ForTwo always raises a smile.

I believe he may be referring to the perceived wisdom, as indeed borne out in every 14 INCH PSYLOCIBE DICK DETECTIVE MD thread up until this one, that the purchase price of an older car should be considered nothing more than a downpayment. And that it shall poo poo spiders and disappointment over all that you love and cherish.

leica posted:Tow ratings tanked because of the watts linkage. Not sure exactly why that is, if someone can explain why the addition of watts linkage would effectively ruin towing capacity that would be great. Without looking into it, my first guess is that it's either to do with having to change the metalwork to accommodate the linkage, and so "lose" the old mounting points, something along the lines of "people are fuckwits and can't be trusted with more than a ton on the back", or a legislative issue that was too expensive to make changes to address. Edit: VVVV Sounds reasonable enough explanation to me. InitialDave fucked around with this message at 22:49 on Apr 20, 2013 |

That sounds a pretty hefty trailer. I'd have thought something about right for an E30 would be more like 1500-2000lbs empty.

14 INCH DETECTIVE posted:Everything works, its comfortable compared to my previous cars, but I can't help but feel like I sold out. First car I've owned that has working AC and now it's got me thinking about poo poo like seat heaters. One day, I hope, you will get someone offer you a rung or two up the ladder, and you can sit in a nice warm office and direct the barely-controlled chaos happening in the bays from the other side of a desk. If you take hold of the same worry about "selling out" and don't do it because of some fear that you need the lovely end of the stick to be constantly poking you in the ribs in order to be "genuine" or whatever, I swear to whichever diety is convenient that I will fly over there and kick you in the spuds. Ranting aside: Your get-to-work car does not need to be a hairy shirt. If you really feel bad about it, slam your dick in the door a couple of times before heading off to work, it'll give you all the discomfort of coming out to find the car won't start/won't stop/is on fire without any of the late-to-work or spending-evening-fixing-poo poo-in-20-degree-weather-when-you-could-be-getting-laid consequences. There is no pride to be had in areas of your life being poo poo, and there is no shame in areas of your life actually going your way for a change. Enjoy having a cushy, working car and redirect the energy you used to have to expend on miscellaneous automotive disasters on things like your career and girlfriend.

If you buy something the wrong side of 4000lbs with a V8 in it and then think MPG is up for discussion, you may wish to reevaluate your approach to things.
