hobbesmaster posted:last spring the potholes went down to the original brick on the street i live on we had a pothole around here that eventually got deep enough that you could bottom out your car in it. before it was fixed they put a traffic cone in it (because when there's a puddle there you literally couldn't tell it existed) and you could only see the top like, ~third of the fuckin' cone. as far as i can tell that road was built on loose sand because that poo poo erodes scary-fast the second you give it a chance

the wheel choice on the oettinger instantly ruins the car both from a perfomance and comfort perspective... and they look extremely bad like all ultra low profile tires the allroad is also considered an insanely stupid car over here but then again, we mainly designed it to ship to the US commies blue avant post is cool and good E: also use some thumbnail tags at least if you are already shitposting Oh poo poo I didn't even realize it was you Kotex. I mean I really try to give you some credit but you are like a magnet, attracted to Germanies worst car creations ever. I guess I'll have to thank you tho because if no one bought our lemons we wouldn't have the reserves to make the actual good cars.

Bonus points: That's the BACK, the gearbox, side of the engine. You have to remove the engine to do any chain maintenance, and the chain guides require replacement around 90-100k miles.

Once you've got an audi in the service position, you're halfway to pulling the engine anyways. Also, sexy wagons,

Usually they end up prorating the tire cost based on the tread wear.
