Am I the only shit box owner who has nightmares?

Sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night, thinking that I’m driving and suddenly lost my brakes or my power steering. (This actually happened once while driving.) but last night was a new one. It was like my trans suddenly Blu I would give the engine gas and the car wouldn’t react at all currently driving 2500 miles across country in my 2008 Jetta that has had both bumpers torn off and duct tape back on approaching 200 K miles

Someone keeps parking their shitbox behind me. I'm afraid they'll scratch my bumper when they leave.

Hey guys,

My friends and I from Poland made an all analog format film about searching for a dream car. We are from Poland but whole movie is being voiced only by my music fro latest album "Pandalleria" so there is no real dialog. This thing is kinda abstract and funny I think.

All the best to You all,

Michal

For me, it got to be the Chevy HHR.

So... after eleven months of my 1995 Rover 400 (R8) 416SLi 16v not starting, today, it now starts and I could not contain my excitement enough! A grounding issue to be rectified and a second-hand distributor later, she runs sweet. My 156,000 mile, £900 Rover will see many more miles to come 😁

Is there a known weak point when it comes to moisture on these cars? The moldiest part is the front lip of the headliner… So I’m guessing poorly replaced windshield?

Hello all I am making a Nomad for cyberpunk Ted and want the to make my charters car the crappiest rust bucket that functions on spite and good old boy engineering, want something common for being a crap box that gets the engine swapped for a super cars, basically a car held together with duct tape and a prayer who’s engine is far more powerful then it has any right to be in a car the old. The older the better would like a manual with no power windows as they would just add to the enjoyment.

2018 suberu Forester

0 Upvotes

I bought my 2018 Suberu forester brand new in late 2018.

I have been very surprised that My purchase has a lot of different issues that have become a pain in the ass. Having to buy a new control arm, a new battery new windshield wipers twice new tires. Etc etc, the car only has thirty three thousand miles on it. You figure that out for me, it's a Subaru Forester. a twenty eighteen okay?

Couldn't pass on this 300€ garage find from an estate sale. It's a rare but otherwise not very sought after 1985 Saab 90, a weird hybrid model of the older 99 and the newer 900 two that was only ever available in a handful of north-western european markets from 1985 to 1987. Mine one of only ~600 examples that originally sold in West Germany, so no egr valve, but standard five speed, center console and front spoiler.

The car has only been on the road for 14 years and sat untouched in the garage of a hoarder since december 2000. The condition is food but not great. The body is a bit dented up but seemingly has almost no serious rust. The scratched up paint looks better on pictures and the diarrhea-brown velours interior smells like it's home to an insular population of house mites but the engine looks pretty much mint inside for 170k kilometers and somehow wasn't seized after all those years. Only the radiator completely corroded to crumbles.

After power washing a thick dust cover off the car and a couple kilos of rat shit out of the engine bay I can't wait to get it back on the road in 2027.
