Here's a Saab from last week and all.
I'd rather have the Wartburg, mind...

Holy moley, I've just had a giffer in a beige Wartburg drive past me.
Still in shock.

Saw this Dodge Spacevan parked up outside work a few weeks back, causing me to do a helluva double-take. 20190329_085635 sml.jpg 20190329_085646 sml.jpg Really did feel like I'd slipped back to 1987 or so as well... just that correct level of shonkiness that a well-used six-year-old van might have. ...

Went to look at a Montego Countryman diesel a few years back, and fuck me it was an absolute bag of horror to drive.

N/s headlight bulb out on the Forester. Pulled it out, dipped filament clearly blown. Shoved a new H4 bulb in. Tried the switch, but n/s light still out. So swapped the o/s bulb and the n/s bulb around. O/s bulb now out, while n/s bulb on. Fair enough, duff new bulb even though it looks fine. It hap...

It's the kind of stuff I used to buy classic motoring magazines to find out about - but nowadays I rarely seem to encounter informative, in-depth articles written by articulate people with a deep knowledge of their subject. Instead the big-meejah boys just seem to churn out ...

Aha, that probably answers the question nicely. I believe Ireland still is quite a bit behind GB when it comes to cremations - there's still only one crematorium to serve the whole of Northern Ireland, and it wasn't built until the late 1950s (Roselawn). I understand that some people of faith still ...

^^^ Fantastic handles on the rear tailgate, there!!! Interesting that the one up top opted to extend the rain channels, whereas the one above chopped them off at the B-pillar. Someone asked me the other day why these Irish hearses seem to have a much lower roofline than GB-built hearses of the same ...

Oosh, that R21 is unbelievable... I wouldn't really class myself as a 'hearse person', but I do like that 'un. Load bed looks actually quite pleasant and comfy; nicer than the trad wood veneer and silverplate of UK coachbuilds. Here's a knackered Mk3 Z-car hearse in an Irish scrappy, just to stay in...
