That’s a well travelled B. Good car to do it on. Easy to work on.

Oh and a nice Alfa....

Talking of which I see a Corsica sold at a US bid.cars auction for $250 (with half a tank of gas looking at the photos). Seems someone in Europe bought it. Shipped it to Rotterdam.(probably had to drain the fuel )
By then the cost was US$2450. Then it got hit with a further €1100 for duty.
All up cost for a $250 car €3,422.

details in the listing here: https://bid.cars/en/lot/0-30982742/1...LD55M6TY202303

That's why many of us here gave up importing anything from the US, the French custom dpt has became totally mad! The last car parts I got were from Lindsay for my 951. Having some relatives in CA was of help… but it works only if the said parts are not forbidden in CA! Worked fine for a rare chronometer made in Switzerland!

Well it's not Wednesday for Wrong Wed but maybe it's a new Moron Monday




Yup, that's a wing on his Focus. And for some reason straps hanging from it. And the wrap was SPECTACULAR. It was just as good on the B pillars, fender flares and a few other bits

[Gerard C]

One winglet on the roof is missing. Tooooo bad! Straps hanging from the wing is a strong aero recommendation found on net net!

That is particularly nasty. I have to ask the question,..... Why, just why?

Because some people have far more money than sense!

Saw this outside my local supermarket. Just seemed an odd colour for a Jeep Gladiator.

those parking blocks are a quarter of the way down the bay... That leaves an awful lot of vehicle sticking out the back..... of course there is no excuse for not seeing the back end of that truck in that colour scheme.

I think that might have actually been a factory color for a bit. I think it's gecko but might be the earlier mojito green, yeah those were the factory paint code names

Turrible early morning into the sun pics but crane building crane. This town is out of hand, man.

But also long bed, green and poverty caps ftw

[Adam43]

I like the wheels.

I don’t have a cool truck photo, but do have a crane photo.

There was a dude up one of them and it was quite windy.

Dualling cranes!

I didnt get any of the pics in #2943. I even tried to open the links from the quote page and they started to open but then went blank before they loaded.
No idea what I missed other that the description FoD79 posted.

Airport fire truck was serious

Shhhh, don't point out we're REALLY REALLY bad at airport fire equipment for a reasonable price here. Almost everyone at a big airport has gone with a variety of the Panthers from Rosenbauer I think it is out of Austria. They're insane, quick as hell and foam system is a BEAST. Toxic as hell foam but so is jet fuel so it's a wash

That seems like a really fair price. If you Brits want to make some money, import some Land Rovers over here, particularly the Defender 90. Americans love them and for good reason.
