In more "Nobody even cares about your shitbox, will you just fuck off" news, the massive pop, crackle, and banging has already blown through the shit exhaust. Couldn't see the blow in the car park of Krispy Kreme last night but it sounds worse than a wet fart, more full on shart.

The non-existent alignment has worn all the tread off the front left semi-slick, there must have been an epic amount of drag on that wheel for it to have done that, and would explain the black dust all over the car, it's basically covered both sides of the car in fine particles of rubber. That's costly laziness on my part, I should have taken it back to get the steering rack sorted already.

Oh and @jambon I found the OEM gearknob in case you still want it.

My AMG searching on Google must have rerouted the encryptions to make YouTube serve me this. 10/10 would bang.

Just remembered this was at FOS.

Worst (best) body kit ever.

I have literally coughed my baby yoghurt at that. I would kill everyone I know for that car. Everyone.

The AMG Hammer. Not the Micra.

There's a guy with a w124 estate in Berlin Kreuzberg.
Not as crazy as this, but a very, very desirable car.

Meanwhile in Fontwell...

Nnnnnnnnnnnggg

Veyron lite

Micron?

I came quite close to buying one before I got the Audi RS6. But Mercedes. And MPV. Couldn't bring myself to do it.

Coolant light comes on after "spirited acceleration" and is not flickering but just on. Bitter experience tells me a hose has gone. Murder scene in the bay confirms fears.

That looks easy to replace....

Are kids old enough to get their hands in tight places yet?

Ha! Small children - the non-ferrous version of magnet on a stick.

Got these off a garage down the road from where I broke down, going for the old cut and shut.

Classic, AA man did that for me after my supercharged MX5 split a hose, he told me it was a temp fix to get me home and to get it changed ASAP. So, of course I left it like that for a couple of months.

Not spitting coolant so I'm calling it a success.

I fear that is going to happen here.

Looks disgusting, have you had the car wormed?

Get home, as I pull in an awful slapping noise starts. Why me?
