Damn. This would beyond fuck me off. What do they think is better? Sending this perfectly good car to a scrap yard and just buying a brand new car instead lol?
Edit: thought they'd slashed them. Misunderstood. Annoying but not as bad as I thought.
There are plenty of cars going to scrap yards right now that don't have horrific emissions, don't have pedestrian crushing front ends; etc etc. Often being scrapped for relatively trivial reasons too.
We got tyre extinguished!
