    I just about cried today, when I read Rammstein's "Ich Will" is 20 years old in August.

    I think the AWD market for second hand seems to be picking up, until the new WRX update is released. The new car is actually physically larger than the current model, and will have an engine change. Mine's nice but they are slowly turning into a family sedan at this rate..Also if people want a...

    His debt will suck balls for a bit, we sold a house a few months back for twice as much as we paid for it, to a cash buyer so that had us debt free till this, it could take awhile with legal paperwork etc. Originally when his parents passed on, my wife and bro-in-law would get the house but...

    Off topic is fine, I don't mind. Bro-in-law would probably prefer to talk cars over death haha

    My bro-in-law was a stickler for only taking it to MB and he knew he was getting screwed, but he tried being a purist but it burned holes in his wallet to the point the car was getting neglected, simply because he could not stop pouring money into MB where he could have had a ton of money left...

    I'm 6ft tall, and thought i'd never fit into it. But sure enough the cabin size is perfect, not cramped and dirt cheap to fuel up.

    ...and $100 for replacing windscreen wipers...ffs. Had to get my wife's VW serviced (it had to go in, due to Takata recall. VW wanted to charge $330 to replace the sparkplugs....$60 worth of spark plugs, rip off the air filter, plugs are right there...RIGHT THERE...IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES......a...

    Thanks Butuz, yeah it's a double edged sword. Sheer brutality vs expensive repairs. I did email the manager of one of the dealerships last year and called them "thieving c#nts". My father-in-law lost the PIN number for his radio in his Merc. Mercedes said they "couldn't find it" but come in...

    Always fun to see on the news...."The car worth an estimated <SHIT LOAD OF MONEY> reportedly crashed at the first corner, and the thieves have been caught"

    I would, but I like wood. Also need desk space for non-gaming, which sucks...but there's wood..nice wood.

    Not entirely sure, they're all in carry cases I just had to move his stuff about to move some furniture. Be nice if he had one of Hendrix's guitar's or one of Prince's....or three......eight etc.

    Goodness a Corsair haha would have been ok if it was a Vauxhall Lotus Carlton, I read about the one the Police could not catch. We had similar when the WRX came to Australia, getaway car of choice. But yeah I hear what you are saying, common sense over sentimentality....but I will take it for a...

    As strange as it sounds I got my first WRX for the safety...that's what I pitched at my wife. As I wanted a "daily" when I bought it, I went with the 2.0lt the previous owner was having it serviced every 4000km....looking at the service book, it's like three years ahead haha, so mechanically...

    Want to drive a WRX....three pedals is the ONLY acceptable way to do so. It's also an antitheft device, wannabe fast and furious car thieves look in and see a stick....and keep walking. The Merc's a 7-spd auto, but you can use sport-mode and use paddle shifters on the wheel. I haven't tried that...

    Love the RS4. I hope your family member is getting the best treatment possible, my bro-in-law was making good money but decided to "YOLO" and not have medical insurance. Thankfully Australia has a good system, the only cost to us in hospital was the parking. He was an odd duck, he lives next...

    Ahh my wife's dream car, told her they remind me of a Mazda MX5 on steroids, nice car but I have to play the hand i'm dealt with...so it's the AMG or the WRX....I did feel a little more justified listening to Rammstein in the AMG haha.

    Was a strange irony, for ten years his parents, my wife and I thought he had four friends in the whole world. Turns out he had hundreds of close friends who didn't even know each other! I had longer conversations with random people on a bus until seven weeks ago, we'd sit and talk for hours. My...

    Apparently the engine assembled in Affalterbach (Outside Stuttgart), and fitted to the chassis in Bremen (Northern Germany). A nice touch having the dude who assembled the engine get to throw an identifying plate on there. I saw another pic with this guy's name on a car eight years older, and...
