Fading Brakelight Obscurity II - Championship Edition (Part 1)

My friend’s girlfriend rode one to work for a long time. All surface streets with 45-55 mph limits. She really liked it. Eventually the electric start failed so she used the kick start until the splines came off the kick start input shaft. So that just kinda happens eventually I guess. Other than that I think it was just general maintenance for years.

for those who still remember the MK1 Ford Ka:

seems like the evil twin is in midlife crisis,

and the brits sure know how to have fun, don’t they.

Oh hell yes!

So DiRT rally is kinda bleeding into my real life enough that I’m trying to butch my little hatch out as some kind of offroading poseur.

Not really a save, but probably the best way to come out of this with the least amount of time lost. Earlier in this stage, I come out of a corner on my side :upside_down_face:

God I love the CrossCabriolet so much. It’s one of the most useless vehicles ever invented. I would love to acquire one and turn it into a one-seater.

Big oof. I didn’t think the new Bronco would give me… feelings. Those steel wheels! And it’s available with a 7 speed manual…

The new Bronco has me SHOOK between this and the new Defender that’s two SUVs in the past year that have made me reconsider my compact-car loyalty

This Bronco is one of the first cars in a while that looks purposeful and not like an imitation of itself.

Doors and roof come off. 7th gear in the transmission is a crawler gear. Seems to be somewhat of a legit offroader (except for the “sport” crossover version but that’s probably to keep the bean counters happy).

Happiness is pulling over into the parking lot of an Autozone so you can zip-tie your skid plate back onto the bottom of your car in the baking summer heat

(I tore it off in the snow, year ago, and the mounting hardware for the thing costs $60 just for a few weird specialty nuts and washers, fuck that)

Dang, where did these come from. Royal Alloy now selling these convincing metal-bodied Lambretta homages. Available as 125,150,200 and an oh-mama full 300 Taiwanese-powered cubic centimeters. Cool and good.

I think maybe only the 150cc is available here in the states currently? Seemingly distributed by Genuine, most famous for their Stella, a Vespa PX clone.
