The car thread 2.

Needs more Corrado.

I wonder how many other manufacturers are doing this? I don't see any of them leaping to condemn it.

Also, I read that this diddle allows the VW diesels to emit up to 40X the legal limit of NOx. i.e. each car = 40 cars for this type of emission.

[Brad]

Yeah, I wonder if anyone else is doing it?

[nakamura]

Probably all of them. Diesel has always seemed like a bit fat lie. Especially when one craps soot all over you.

[charlesr]

Which is every time they accelerate....

[Brad]

Ban them!

Just spotted one of my old S2000's on eBay, must have sold it in 2007, was weird to see it. She looks a wee bit rough around the edges these days.

I've decided I really like rx8s. What a fabulous design. I know they have engine problems and burn oil and petrol but that 4 door design is awesome.

[Colin]

Man, I need an interim fun car. I just can't think of anything that would fit the bill.

[Brad]

Something really crazy like a Caterham or an Atom?

[EvilBoris]

A right hand drive renault Twingo?

Don't have garage space right now (usually use a friends for my 'fun' stuff) so it needs to live outdoors whatever it is.

[speedlolita]

That's pretty damn nice.

I couldn't cope with that spoiler being over 40, but other than that top notch Charles.
